An energy conservative hp-scheme for light propagation using Liouville’s equation for geometrical optics
In this contribution an alternative method to standard forward ray-tracing is briefly outlined. The method is based on a phase-space description of light propagating through an optical system. The propagation of light rays are governed by Hamilton’s equations. Conservation of energy and étendue for...
