文摘The achievements made in China in the field of the theory of conjugation for reflecting prisms are outlined which mainly includes 6 theorems, 2 corollaries, over 30 formulae, 4 matric operators, 20 characteristic parameters, a new principle for dassification, and a new system of graphical tabulation for reflecting prisms.
