Recall the definition of the rectangular function: $$ \textrect\left(\fracxa\right) = \begincases 1 & |x| < a/2 \ 0 & \textotherwise \endcases $$ Available to verifying professors through the publisher

A common stumbling block in the problems is determining which approximation is valid for a given physical setup. Valid when the distance

Compare the Modulation Transfer Functions (MTF) of coherent vs. incoherent systems?

Fresnel diffraction requires numerical evaluation of Fresnel integrals unless the distance $z$ is very large (Fraunhofer regime) or very small (Rayleigh-Sommerfeld regime). Joseph W
