Cassegrain convex hyperboloid the person, company or institution that created the mirror reflector Cassegrain material and other engineering details or primary mirror diameter Telescope devised by Cassegrain in which an auxiliary convex mirror reflects the magnified image, upside down, through a hole in the center of the main objective mirror - i.e., through the end of the telescope itself. It was, however, no improvement on the gregorian telescope invented probably slightly earlier. equal to aperture (except for Schmidt which has aperture smaller than mirror diameter) concave paraboloid
