dish_shape_length#

Telescope: LSTS-design

Description: Dish curvature length, best equal to focal length. For a Davies-Cotton dish, this is the radius of the sphere on which the mirror tiles are positioned. For a parabolic dish, this is the focal length of the paraboloid on which the mirrors are placed. This parameter is only needed when variations to the standard shapes are tried out, e.g. intermediate shapes between parabolic and Davies-Cotton.
