Optical Resolution Model
written by Fu-Kwun Hwang
edited by Robert Mohr
The EJS Optical Resolution model computes the image from two point sources as seen through a circular aperture such as a telescope or a microscope.  The simulation allows the user to vary the distance between the light sources and the diameter of the aperture, as well as the intensity of the light source.
