A 1:1 apochromat transfer lens system

A prototype system for remote control was constructed for the University of Arizona 90-inch telescope on Kitt Peak. The system uses image dissector tubes, a conventional photocell, and photographic plates as detectors for images formed at the Cassegrain focus of the 90-inch telescope. It was decided to use an image relay system to transfer selected portions of the image plane to image dissectors and the photographic plate. The design of a 1:1 relay system is described. Design considerations are discussed and alternate designs are outlined.
