Abstract

Conoscopic figures of optically active crystals are described by the formulas for the intensity of light transmitted by a plate located between arbitrarily oriented polarizer and analyzer. The differences in the behavior of optically active and inactive crystals and also of right-and left-handed crystals are established. The corresponding computations and the simulation of conoscopic figures are performed using the Mathematica-4.1 package of computer programs.
