Aplanat - Aplanat (English spelling)

Japanese: アプラナート - あぷらなーと(英語表記)Aplanat
Aplanat - Aplanat (English spelling)
A planar optical system is a rotationally symmetrical optical system that eliminates spherical aberration and coma aberration, and therefore produces an image that is almost uniformly sharp near the optical axis. In this type of lens, chromatic aberration is usually eliminated as well. In reality, all practical lenses can be considered aplanatic. In a parabolic mirror, spherical aberration is completely zero for an object at infinity on the optical axis, but coma aberration remains. For this reason, for example, even in the 200-inch (508 cm) reflecting telescope at Hale Observatory (USA) that uses a paraboloid of revolution and has an aperture ratio of 1:3.3, the usable image plane at the focal plane of the primary mirror is only 20 mm in diameter.

Japanese:
回転対称の光学系で,球面収差とコマ収差が除去され,そのため光軸付近でほぼ一様に鮮鋭な像を結ぶものをいう。この種のレンズでは色収差も同時に除去されているのがふつうである。現実の実用的レンズはすべてアプラナートと考えてよい。放物面鏡では,光軸上で無限遠物体に対し球面収差は完全に0であるがコマ収差が残存する。このため,例えばヘール天文台(アメリカ)の,回転放物面を利用した口径200インチ(508cm),口径比1:3.3の反射望遠鏡でも,主鏡焦点面で使用できる画面はわずか直径20mmにすぎない。
