For a lens in air, f is then given by : sfn Imaging properties As mentioned above, a positive or converging lens in air focuses a collimated beam travelling along the lens axis to a spot (known as the focal point ) at a distance f from the lens.
If the lens is biconcave or plano-concave, a collimated beam of light passing through the lens is diverged (spread); the lens is thus called a negative or diverging lens.
Conversely, a point source of light placed at the focal point is converted into a collimated beam by the lens.
Conversely, light that originates from a point source at the focus is reflected into a parallel (" collimated ") beam, leaving the parabola parallel to the axis of symmetry.
But since these sights use parallel collimated light this is only true when the target is at infinity.
But the works by Forward, Dröscher, and Häuser could not be considered as a form of repulsor or tractor beam because the predicted impulses and field effects were not confined to a well defined, collimated region.
