  1. 1. MULTIFOCAL SPHERICAL FISH LENSES

    Författare :Yakir Gagnon; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multifocal Lens; Adaptation; Dispersion; Spherical lens; Model; Fish; Ray-trace; Longitudinal Chromatic Aberration; Longitudinal Spherical Aberration; Modulation Transfer Function; Point Spread Function; Refractive Index Gradient;

    Sammanfattning : Vision is an important source of information for many animals. The lens plays a central role in the visual pathway and hence the ecology of these animals. Fish have spherically shaped crystalline lenses that contain a gradient of refractive index. Like all refracting elements, lens performance depends on the wavelength of the refracted light. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Orbital angular momentum; Hall effect; Nonparaxial beam; Geometrical optics; High frequency radio waves; Ray tracing; Magnetic zenith effect; Ionospheric irregularities; Wave propagation; Fysik med inriktning mot rymd- och plasmafysik; Physics with specialization in Space and Plasma Physics;

    Sammanfattning : In ground based high frequency (HF) radio pumping experiments, absorption of ordinary (O) mode pump waves energises the ionospheric plasma, producing optical emissions and other effects. Pump-induced or natural kilometre-scale field-aligned density depletions are believed to play a role in self-focussing phenomena such as the magnetic zenith (MZ) effect, i. LÄS MER
