Use of a laser in the collimation of the CIDA Schmidt camera. (1981). Revista Mexicana De Astronomía Y Astrofísica, 6(1), 373. https://astronomia.unam.mx/journals/rmxaa/article/view/1981rmxaa...6..373m
Abstract
We describe the use of a low-power laser for the optical alignment of the classical Schmidt system. The method is simple and allows rapid decrease of the plateholder tilt to 30 arcsec 0.02 mm at the edge of the plate.Similar Articles
