The general equation by which the properties of the component parts of a compound optical system are determined is put into a new form. Solutions are obtained consisting of terms containing arbitrary constants together with any particular solution. The particular solution itself is the sum of two parts, one of which is independent of the corrections required in the complete instrument, while the other contains only the terms which express these special conditions. The arbitrary terms are given for a system of any number of components, and the particular solutions for systems of few components, the only cases which require special treatment.
