Abstract
An expression for the longitudinal spherical aberration produced by a spherical refracting surface from parallel incident light in the fifth-order approximation is derived. A simple experiment to measure the location of focal points formed by nonparaxial rays is also described. The results of the measurements are in good agreement with the theory.
