OPTICAL TESTING OF LARGE TELESCOPES USING MULTIPLE SUBAPERTURES (HETERODYNE INTERFEROMETRY, ZERNIKE POLYNOMIALS).

The construction of telescope systems with large apertures (≃10 meters) is currently being planned. These entire telescope systems should be optically tested in a double-pass configuration. The high cost of manufacturing optical flats large enough to test a large telescope has stimulated research on...
