Abstract

The development of a new telescope type, the ZOBIG, is described, which is capable of complete stray light rejection, parfocalization of all wavelengths, and diffraction limited image quality, all without aspherics, even for a 2-meter aperture. The main purpose of this new design is as a solar coronagraph, although there are several other possible astronomical and military applications.
