In that piece, pairs of participants are ushered into a darkened room behind the library's circulation desk, precisely measured, and then asked to sit perfectly still for 26 minutes facing each other while seated at a contraption made of mirrors and glass, their heads held in place by metal supports so their pupils line up precisely.
The pupils line up neatly, to sing the national anthem, clad in white headscarves, and pale blue tunics.
I had found a class photo, for example, one in the classic pose with all the pupils lined up.
Currently the recommendation is to not inject at or under the brow in the mid-pupil line, as this is the area of highest risk.
We analyzed the full-pupil line-scanning configuration using the same approach.
Our initial studies with a divided-pupil line-scanning microscope were motivated by the original design of Koester [ 11].
The Gaussian beam, uniform source, and the full-pupil line-scanning on-axis image irradiance are plotted for comparison.
We demonstrate this approach for a line-scanner, using the optimum fill factor, h, for a full-pupil line-scan, h = 1.02, with NA = 0.90, and dpinhole = 2.5*dAiryDisc.
For optimization of the transmitter path for our system using the computational model, the optimum value for fill-factor, h, of the four confocal microscopy configurations: (1) full-pupil point-scanning, (2) full-pupil line-scanning, (3) divided-pupil point-scanning, and (4) divided-pupil line-scanning are 0.89, 1.02, 0.66, and 0.52 respectively.
In this paper, we report the results of an investigation of the performance of a full-pupil line-scanning reflectance confocal microscope in human epidermis.
The optimum fill factor, h, for the divided-pupil line-scanning system, as determined by the peak (o) in Fig. 3d is h = 0.52 with a x = 0.35.
