A JOSA A [#OPG_JOSA_A] paper presents the underlying concepts and analytical expressions for aberration coefficients in the Lie algebraic approach: https://bit.ly/4eEm4KG The Eindhoven University of Technology team shows how to derive the contributions of gradient-index (GRIN) media to ray propagation by following the Lie algebraic method, with the explicit formulas providing key insights into the influence of refractive index parameters on the system’s optical performance. In their study, the researchers optimize a radial lens, recovering as classical solution, and a GRIN lens with inhomogenous terms along the optical axis. Written by: A. Barion, M. J. H.
