Description

It is reported the optical design of the Auger and Kosmotepetl projects. For the first one it was used a Schmidt camera without corrector plate and for the second one it is proposed to use a Fresnel mirror of low frequency with a stop located at the common curvature center in order to avoid the coma and astigmatism aberrations
