Abstract
The axial field distribution near the focus of a collimating system subject to astigmatism is examined. It is shown that a doubly-peaked focusing response results and that the aperture efficiency is increased with a greater illumination taper. The results are applicable to a paraboloidal reflector with different foci in the two principal planes.
