Software for laser simulations

AI Thread Summary
For simulating laser beams, including intensity, power, and mirror arrangements, ray tracing software is recommended. One suggested option is the Optical Ray Tracer, which can be found at arachnoid.com. Additionally, certain CAD software can manage optical elements effectively. Users are encouraged to explore these tools for their laser simulation needs. Further suggestions for software are welcomed to enhance the search.

Thread 'Simple math model for a Particle Image Velocimetry system'

Hello togehter, I am new to this forum and hope this post followed all the guidelines here (I tried to summarized my issue as clean as possible, two pictures are attached). I would appreciate every help: I am doing research on a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. For this I want to set a simple math model for the system. I hope you can help me out. Regarding this I have 2 main Questions. 1. I am trying to find a math model which is describing what is happening in a simple Particle...

Thread 'Pentaprism with magnification, which surface is curved?'

I would like to use a pentaprism with some amount of magnification. The pentaprism will be used to reflect a real image at 90 degrees angle but I also want the reflected image to appear larger. The distance between the prism and the real image is about 70cm. The pentaprism has two reflecting sides (surfaces) with mirrored coating and two refracting sides. I understand that one of the four sides needs to be curved (spherical curvature) to achieve the magnification effect. But which of the...
