I managed to get it through my Athens login.  I haven't read the 9 page 
article yet but the optics look quite complicated (for me as an 
amateur).  I can't distribute it to the list (copyright) but I might 
read it in the next few days...

Cheers

I managed to get it through my Athens login.  I haven't read the 9 page
article yet but the optics look quite complicated (for me as an
amateur).  I can't distribute it to the list (copyright) but I might
read it in the next few days...

Unfortunately,
there is an obstacle to reading this article: "Unfortunately you do not
have a license to view this article in IOPscience.  You can access 1961 J. Sci.
Instrum. 38 37 through our Electronic Journals service."  
  

  

Hi Randall,

  

       I note that the avaricious IOP want $30 for an article that they
published in 1961 when supplied by direct download. And you have to
accept their 'Terms and Conditions'. It seems that they have yet to
learn fair pricing or common sense.

  

       This article probably is of interest if you are building optical
systems.  So why not go to your local library and ask them to supply a
photocopy from the Library of Congress? 

  

       Regards,
