Abstract
An anamorphotic telescope has mutually different magnification along directions of minimum and maximum magnification in an image plane. A spectroscope with an elongated input slit directed along one of the directions of maximum and minimum magnification may be located in the image plane. The anamorphotic telescope has a first and second reflector lens with mutually different first and second radii of curvature in directions (y, x) that optically correspond to directions of minimum and maximum magnification. At least one of the first and second reflector lens has a variable radius of curvature in one direction (x), which varies as a function of position in the other direction (y), the variable radius of curvature decreasing in a direction of the angle from the view direction to the light directed by the first reflector lens to the second reflector lens.
