Airy Disk $$\theta_{min}\approx1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}$$
Rayleigh Criterion and Angular Resolution
Gaussian PSF
$$ 2.35\times\sigma$$
Adaptive Optics
seeing
Light gathering power, plate scale, focal ratio, etc.
Plate Sclae
$$ P_s=\frac{\theta}{S} = \frac{1}{F}$$
Limiting Magnitude
$$m_v = m_v'+5lg\frac{D}{d_{eye}}+2.3lgk$$
$$m_v'=2.1mag+5lgD (D@mm)$$
$$m_{film}=-2.5log_{10}D+2.5log_{10}t+C$$
Focal Ratio
$$E~~D^2$$$$Perarea~~S^2~~F^2$$
$$R=\frac{F}{D}$$written as f/[R] e.g f/2.8
f/R small f/R = fast exposure and smaller plate scale
FOV
$$FOV=2tan^{-1}(\frac{\omega}{2f})$$
Vera Rubin
Target

SNR
Composition of Detection
Signal & Noise
Poisson Distribution
$$Longer~~ \rightarrow greater~~ SNR$$
