Abstract

Exact results for the magnification and effective focal length of a multiple-path telescope are presented. We present analytical results for the third-order design of this system, using the Seidel sums for the five aberration terms. Numerical calculations are used throughout to corroborate these results. Third-order aberrations remain small or at least stable as the number of paths is increased.
