Abstract
In this work we calculate the effect caused by roughness on the light reflected by an optical surface like a mirror, the numerical calculation is carry out within the Rayleigh approximation. We focus our study in the comparison of the results obtained numerically using different roughness parameters and calculate its effect on the aberrations of the wavefront, which without the effect of the roughness is considered a ideal surface.
