Casscgrainiantelescope ; § 84. If the small reflector be made convex insteadof concave, we have the modification proposed by , and called the Cassegrainian telescope, whichis represented in the figure.

Sir Isaac Newton substituted for the small cur- Newtonianved reflector a plane one inclined under an angle of 45° telescope;to the axis of the instrument, and so placed as to inter-cept the rays before the image is formed. The vergencynot being affected by reflexion at plane surfaces, § 55,the image is formed on one side, and viewed throughthe lens supported by a small tube inserted in the side of Fig. 57.
