It allows the removal of the wavefront distortions a light beam receives when passing through an aberrating medium, by sending it back through the same aberrating medium with a conjugated phase.

Another occurrence actually a chain of three such quadripoints linked to two separate unclaimed areas is inferred where the southern end of the Alaska sector of the Canada US border aberrates into two crisscrossing versions or claim lines.

He set out what he saw as the cause of homosexuality : a mental " aberration ", with the result that " an individual aberrated enough about sex will do strange things to be a cause or an effect.

The effect of the mirror flaw on scientific observations depended on the particular observation the core of the aberrated PSF was sharp enough to permit high-resolution observations of bright objects, and spectroscopy of point sources was only affected through a sensitivity loss.
15.
Since aberration correction is performed after the light passes into the instrument, the entrance to the spectrograph must be an extended aperture, rather than the traditional narrow entrance slit, in order to allow the entire aberrated HST image from a point source to enter the instrument.
16.
The main criticisms of the original design are ( 1 ) that the required low-transmission reduces the efficiency, and ( 2 ) when the beam becomes too aberrated, the intensity on-axis is reduced, and less light is available for the reference beam, leading to a loss of fringe contrast.

One night, intoxicated, Freddie finds himself in San Francisco and stows away on the yacht of a follower of Lancaster Dodd, the leader of a nascent philosophical movement known as " The Cause . " When he is discovered, Dodd describes Freddie as " aberrated " and invites him to stay and attend the marriage of his daughter, Elizabeth, as long as he will make more of his mysterious brew ( made with paint thinner ), which Dodd has developed a taste for.
