Method for optimizing the errors of the wavefront of recorded radiation for large-size information-measuring optical systems

The article proposes a new method for increasing the information content of the image by minimizing the errors of the optical system of a large telescope using the redistribution of errors over the image field. Variation of the parameters of the secondary mirror is carried out to solve the optimization problem of uniform distribution of aberrations over the image field of a large telescope using the example of a cryotelescope with a diameter of 12 m in the Zemax-EE package. The results of calculations of optical schemes by the traditional method and by the method of optimization of the errors of the radiation wavefront are presented. The advantages and disadvantages are considered.
