Abstract
A theory, methods, and software are developed for the automated calcul ation of the retouching profile in order to compensate axisymmetric an d nonaxisymmetric aberrations that are caused by errors in the fabrica tion of high-resolution optical systems. The retouching profile is cal culated on the basis of interferograms recorded within the field of vi ew of the objective. The software makes it possible to estimate the ef fectiveness of the retouching on the basis of optophysical image-quali ty criteria.
