Part 2 . Physical Optics
... OPD is therefore constant along a fringe. Constructiy e interference occurs when the two waves are in phase, and a bright fringe or maximum in the intensity pattern results. This corresponds to a phase difference of an integral number of 2π ’s or an OPD that is a multiple of the wavelength. A dark f ...

Pupil Mapping in 2-D for High-Contrast Imaging
... Several other coronagraphic methods have been suggested. One of the first was the idea of a square apodized pupil (Nisenson and Papaliolios (2001)), in which the transmission function of the pupil is tapered to zero at the edges, thereby reducing the sidelobes, but at a loss of light and angular res ...
