The asymmetric beam axis distribution should not be confused with the asymmetric beam power/energy
distribution function.
beam in the x-z and y-z
planes. Requires a focusing
element.
Twice the standard
deviation of the measured
angular movement.
Where s is the angular standard
deviation of the energy/power
distribution and fl is the focal
length of the focusing optic.
Distance of transverse dis-
placement of the beam in
the x and y directions.
The angle that the major
axis of the asymmetric
centroid histogram plot
makes with respect to the
laboratory (camera) axial
