Hyperbola

Reference Materials

• Hyperbolic Reflector Animation. (A QuickTime animation) The right half of the hyperbola x^2 - y^2 = 1 is a double-sided reflector here. The left focus emits a pulse of red light. A short time later, the right focus emits a pulse of green light, timed so that the spherical wavefronts resulting from the two pulses both reach the vertex of the reflector simultaneously.
