The time resolution of streak cameras is limited by aberrations introduced by the rotating mirror. The effect of geometrical distortions of the mirror, rotating at maximum speed, may be minimized by appropriate choice of mirror material and cross section. The stresses in the rotating mirror and the distortions of its reflecting surface were calculated for various geometries of the mirror. By using a semianalytical point-match method, the same numerical scheme and the same formulas were applicable to all geometries. Sufficient data on the behavior of symmetric and partly symmetric cross sections have been obtained to permit optimization of the mirror design.
条纹相机的时间分辨率受旋转镜引入的像差限制。通过适当选择镜材料和横截面，可使以最大速度旋转的镜的几何畸变影响最小化。针对镜的各种几何形状，计算了旋转镜中的应力及其反射面的畸变。通过使用半解析点匹配方法，相同的数值方案和公式适用于所有几何形状。已获得关于对称和部分对称横截面行为的足够数据，以允许对镜设计进行优化。
