Summary

Description
English: A flat-top beam being imaged by a lens. The beam is under the effect of the first 21 Zernike polynomials. The Log scale helps visualize the minima in intensity. For example, the top plot represent is a perfect beam (no aberration), whose image is a Bessel function

(*The flat-top beam size (HeavisideTheta) has radius 1*)
(*The Fourier plane is taken to be much larger than the aperture size*)
(*The Fourier transform is the result of the imaging setup*)
(*Each Zernike polynomial is simulated with a coefficient of 0.5*)
