Abstract
In present work the wave aberration is determined for the general case of the concave diffraction grating monochromator using of the direction cosines of the diffracted ray. These direction cosines are found from the ray tracing through the monochromator. The ray tracing includes the holographic grating recording system and the optical system of the monochromator as well. The results of the optimization of the wave aberration and of the light path function are compared for the example of diffraction monochromator.
