\begin{abstract}\parskip4pt\parindent0pt

The \texttt{pst-moire} package makes it possible to very simply create a variety of patterns obtained either by dragging one pattern on another, or by rotating one on the other. Moiré effects sometimes look very interesting. This document provides the necessary commands and divers examples.

For the interested user, we present a section \textbf{Theory} (see pages~\pageref{sec:theory}-\pageref{sec:theoryEnd}) for the mathematical background of moiré patterns.

\section{The command \Lcs{psmoire}}

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psmoire}\OptArgs\Largr{x , y}
\end{BDef}

The command \Lcs{psmoire} contains the options \nxLkeyword{type=}, \nxLkeyword{Rmax=}, \nxLkeyword{scale=}, \nxLkeyword{Alpha=}, \nxLkeyword{rotate=}, \nxLkeyword{E=}, \nxLkeyword{n=} and \nxLkeyword{T=}.

The optional argument \Largr{x , y} gives the \texttt{x} and \texttt{y} center of the image. If not chosen $(0,0)$ is taken by default.

\medskip

\begin{quote}
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{ @{} l >{\ttfamily}l X @{} }\toprule
\textbf{Name}      & \textbf{Default} & \textbf{Meaning}\\\midrule
\Lkeyword{type}    & Fresnel  & The type of pattern\\

\textbf{Note:}
\begin{itemize}
 \item Thickness of the lines/circles: done with the usual PSTricks key \verb+linewidth=1mm+ (for example).
 \item Color of the lines/circles: done with the usual PSTricks key \verb+linecolor=red+ (for example).
\end{itemize}
We set the type of pattern like: \texttt{type=Gauss} (for example).
{\small\begin{verbatim}
\psmoire[options,type=Gauss](x,y)
\end{verbatim}}

For the types that are not affected by \texttt{scale}, simply use the PSTricks key \verb+unit=+.

If no position coordinate is specified, the center of the image is placed at $(0,0)$. The PSTricks thickness key \verb+linewidth=+ does not affect the following types:
\verb+Fresnel+, \verb+Newton+ and \verb+radial+

\section{The command \Lcs{addtomoirelisttype}}

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{addtomoirelisttype}\Largb{name}
\end{BDef}

The command \Lcs{addtomoirelisttype} only comes with one mandatory argument---the name the customer chooses.

If we like to generate our own pattern we can achieve this by using the command \\
\Lcs{addtomoirelisttype}\Largb{name} within the preamble which then references to a file named
\begin{verbatim}
pst-name.pro
\end{verbatim}
where the prefix \verb+pst-+ is automatically generated. This file we need to code ourselves in PostScript language, save within the working folder and then load it within the preamble like
\begin{verbatim}
\pstheader{pst-name.pro}
\addtomoirelisttype{name}
\end{verbatim}


\subsection{How to make a custom moiré types}

\subsubsection{Sinosoidal pattern}

\[
y=a\sin(2\pi\frac{x}{T})
\]
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}[showgrid](-4,-3)(4,3)
\pstVerb{/amplitude 1 def /periode 6.28318530718 def}%
\psplot[plotpoints=1000,algebraic]{-4}{4}{amplitude*sin(2*Pi*x/periode)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
For the grating of equidistant vertical lines we have: $x=ne$, $e$ displacement and $n$ an integer.

The ordinates of the intersection points are: $y_n=a\sin(2\pi\frac{ne}{T})$. Within the following figure, the displacement is set to 0.25.
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}[showgrid](-4,-3)(4,3)
\pstVerb{/amplitude 1 def /periode 6.28318530718 def}%
\psplot[plotpoints=1000,algebraic]{-4}{4}{amplitude*sin(2*Pi*x/periode)}
\psplot[plotpoints=33,algebraic,linestyle=none,showpoints]{-4}{4}{amplitude*sin(2*Pi*x/periode)}%
\multido{\r=-4+0.25}{33}{
\psline(\r,-3)(\r,3)}
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
We determine the equations of the straight lines passing through these points and which are inclined by an angle $\alpha$ with respect to the horizontal. This is to setup with the key \texttt{Alpha=} (in degrees).

The general equation of such a line is given by: $y=x\tan(\alpha)+b$, we determine $b$ to go through one of the previous points.
\[
ne\tan(\alpha)+b=a\sin(2\pi\frac{ne}{T})
\]
and thus we get $b$.
\[
b=a\sin(2\pi\frac{ne}{T})-ne\tan(\alpha)
\]
For every value of $n$ we receive one line.
\[
y=x\tan(\alpha)+a\sin(2\pi\frac{ne}{T})-ne\tan(\alpha)
\]
We draw some lines, setting $a=1$, $T=2\pi$, $-20<n<+20$, $e=0.5$ and $\alpha=70^{\mathrm{o}}$
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture*}[showgrid](-6,-3)(6,3)
\pstVerb{/amplitude 1 def /periode 6.28318530718 0.75 mul def
        /E1 0.25 def
        /Alpha 70 def
        /m1 {Alpha dup sin exch cos div} bind def % pente de la droite
        }%
\psplot[plotpoints=1000,algebraic]{-5}{5}{amplitude*sin(2*Pi*x/periode)}
\psplot[plotpoints=41,algebraic,linestyle=none,showpoints]{-5}{5}{amplitude*sin(2*Pi*x/periode)}%
\multido{\i=-20+1}{41}{%
\pnode(! /xi \i\space E1 mul def % x
         xi
         amplitude 360 periode div xi mul sin mul){A}
\psdot(A)
\rput(A){\psline(! -4 -4 m1 mul)(! 4 4 m1 mul)}
 }
\end{pspicture*}
\end{center}
Now we need to code that in PostScript and name that file \texttt{pst-sin.pro} and save it within the working folder.
{\tiny\begin{verbatim}
moireDict begin
/pst-sin {
0 0 translate
2 dict begin
/A1 0.5 def % amplitude
/TRAME {
-50 E1 2 mul 50 {/n exch def
gsave
   n E1 mul unit % x
   A1 unit 360 Tr div n E1 mul mul sin mul % y
   translate
   linecolor
   linewidth
    -6 unit -6 m mul unit moveto
     6 unit 6 m mul unit lineto
    stroke
grestore
    } for
} def
Runit neg dup
Runit 2 mul dup
rectclip
   TRAME
end
} def
end
\end{verbatim}}


\newpage


This results within the following custom generated pattern.
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-5,-6)(5,6)
\psset{Rmax=5,T=2,E=0.2}
\psmoire[type=sin,rotate=2]
\psmoire[type=sin,rotate=-2]
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
{\small\begin{verbatim}
\begin{pspicture}(-5,-6)(5,6)
\psset{Rmax=5,T=2,E=0.2}
\psmoire[type=sin,rotate=2]
\psmoire[type=sin,rotate=-2]
\end{pspicture}
\end{verbatim}}
\textbf{Note:} Now we can use our custom generated \texttt{type=sin} with all the other options available.


\newpage


\subsubsection{Cosine pattern}

Here another PostScript code saved with the file name \texttt{pst-cosine.pro} within the working folder.
{\tiny\begin{verbatim}
moireDict begin
/pst-cosine {
/amplitud 2.5 def
/period 2 def
/cos1 [
-8 0.05 8 {/x exch def % 320 pts
x unit
360 x mul period div cos amplitud mul
} for
] def
%
/drawcos {
newpath
cos1 0 get cos1 1 get moveto
0 2 cos1 length 2 sub {/i exch def
cos1 i get cos1 i 1 add get lineto
 } for
 stroke
} def
gsave
Runit neg dup
Runit 2 mul dup
rectclip
0 -8 unit translate
nr {
0 E1 translate
drawcos
} repeat
grestore
} def
end
\end{verbatim}}

Setting into the preamble:
\begin{verbatim}
\pstheader{pst-cosine.pro}
\addtomoirelisttype{cosine}
\end{verbatim}

\textbf{Example 1:}

\begin{minipage}[t]{12cm}\kern0pt

\section{Opacity and Blendmodes}

If we want to highlight the color of the intersecting area of the lines of two or more overlapping moiré patterns differently, we can either use \emph{opacity} or \emph{blendmodes}.


\subsection{Opacity}

In case we want to add some opacity to the lines of the moiré patterns, we just set, i. e.
\begin{verbatim}
\pstVerb{%
0.25 .setopacityalpha
}
\end{verbatim}
within the \verb+\pspicture+ environment.

Distiller users set instead:
\begin{verbatim}
\pstVerb{%
[ /ca 0.25 /CA 0.25 /SetTransparency pdfmark
}
\end{verbatim}

\textbf{Note:} The value for the opacity needs to be between 0 and 1.

\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-6,-6)(6,6)
\pstVerb{%
0.25 .setopacityalpha
}
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=blue,linewidth=3pt,n=60]
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=red,linewidth=3pt,rotate=90,n=60]
\pstVerb{%
1 .setopacityalpha
}
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
{\tiny\begin{verbatim}
\begin{pspicture}(-6,-6)(6,6)
\pstVerb{%
0.25 .setopacityalpha
}
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=blue,linewidth=3pt,n=60]
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=red,linewidth=3pt,rotate=90,n=60]
\end{pspicture}
\end{verbatim}}


\newpage


\subsection{Blendmodes}

In case we want to overlap various moiré patterns we can use the following blendmodes:
\begin{quote}
\texttt{/Lighten}, \texttt{/Darken}, \texttt{/Normal}, \texttt{/Multiply}, \texttt{/Screen}, \texttt{/Overlay}, \texttt{/ColorDodge},\\ \texttt{/ColorBurn}, \texttt{/HardLight}, \texttt{/SoftLight}, \texttt{/Difference}, \texttt{/Exclusion}, \texttt{/Saturation}, \\
\texttt{/Color}, \texttt{/Luminosity}.
\end{quote}
We just set, i. e.
\begin{verbatim}
\pstVerb{%
/Darken .setblendmode
}
\end{verbatim}
within the \verb+\pspicture+ environment.

Distiller users set instead:
\begin{verbatim}
\pstVerb{%
[ /BM /Darken /ca 1 /CA 1 /SetTransparency pdfmark
}
\end{verbatim}

\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-6,-6)(6,6)
\pstVerb{%
/Darken .setblendmode
}
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=blue,linewidth=3pt,n=60]
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=green,linewidth=3pt,rotate=90,n=60]
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
{\small\begin{verbatim}
\begin{pspicture}(-6,-6)(6,6)
\pstVerb{%
/Darken .setblendmode
}
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=blue,linewidth=3pt,n=60]
\psmoire[type=linear,linecolor=green,linewidth=3pt,rotate=90,n=60]
\end{pspicture}
\end{verbatim}}


\newpage


\section{The moiré types}

\subsection{\texttt{type=Fresnel}}

The \texttt{type=Fresnel} consists of concentric circles with incrementing radii of $\sqrt{n}$. The maximum radius is given by \texttt{Rmax}. The linewidth is fixed (cannot be changed by \texttt{linewidth=}), due to the thickness of the circle varies.

\textbf{Example 1: Overlapping pattern with centers close to each other}

\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-3,-3)(3,3)
\psmoire[linecolor=red,scale=0.5](-0.2,0)
\psmoire[linecolor=red,scale=0.5](0.2,0)
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
{\small\begin{verbatim}
\begin{pspicture}(-3,-3)(3,3)
\psmoire[linecolor=red,scale=0.5](-0.2,0)
\psmoire[linecolor=red,scale=0.5](0.2,0)
\end{pspicture}
\end{verbatim}}

\textbf{Example 2: Overlapping pattern with centers far from each other}

\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-5,-3)(5,3)
\psmoire[linecolor={[rgb]{0.15 0.75 0.15}},scale=0.5](-1.5,0)
\psmoire[linecolor={[rgb]{0.15 0.75 0.15}},scale=0.5](1.5,0)
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}
{\small\begin{verbatim}
\begin{pspicture}(-5,-3)(5,3)
\psmoire[linecolor={[rgb]{0.15 0.75 0.15}},scale=0.5](-1.5,0)
\psmoire[linecolor={[rgb]{0.15 0.75 0.15}},scale=0.5](1.5,0)
\end{pspicture}
\end{verbatim}}


\newpage


\subsection{\texttt{type=linear}}

The \texttt{type=linear} offers two more keys to be more flexible:
\begin{verbatim}
n    Number of lines -1                              Default: 30
T    Distance between the middle of two lines in mm  Default: 2
\end{verbatim}
The height of the lines is given by: \texttt{2*Rmax}, the width of the image is \texttt{n*T}

If we like a distance that is equal to the thickness of the line, we set:
\begin{verbatim}
linewidth=T/2
\end{verbatim}
If \texttt{T=2}, we set \texttt{linewidth=0.1}.

\textbf{Example 1: Basic pattern with the keys \texttt{n=} and \texttt{T=}}

\begin{minipage}[t]{8cm}\kern0pt
\begin{pspicture}(-3,-3)(3,3)
\psmoire[type=linear,n=70,T=1,Rmax=3]

\subsection{\texttt{type=radial}}

The \texttt{type=radial} consists of radial rays---to be more precise, it consists of 120 sectors. The maximal radius of the sectors is given by \texttt{Rmax=}.

\subsection{\texttt{type=circle}}

The \texttt{type=circle} offers two more keys to be more flexible:
\begin{verbatim}
n    Number of circles                            Default: 30
T    Distance between two adjacent circles in mm  Default: 2
\end{verbatim}
The key \texttt{Rmax} has no effect. The maximal width/height of the image is calculated by: \texttt{n*T}, by default: $30\cdot 2=60\,\text{mm}=6\,\text{cm}$. Another way could be to use the default values and play with the usual PSTricks key \texttt{unit=}.

The idea to make that type more flexible came from example 11.8 page 373 of the book ``\emph{The Theory of the Moiré Phenomenon}'' of Isaac Amidror.

E      x-distance between two points
      on the Gaussian curve          Default: 0.25

These following rotating moirés were obtained with the use of the \texttt{pst-lens} package. It is the reproduction, with the tools of PSTricks, of the image 6, page 137 of the book ``\textit{Les phénomènes naturels}'' of the Library \textit{Pour la Science}, Berlin (1978). This image is accompanied by the following comment:
\begin{quote}\itshape
<<~Ces moirés tournants apparaissent quand les lentilles placées sur une trame et observées avec une autre trame identique à la première. La grosse lentille (convergente) réduit la trame inférieure, tandis que la petite lentille (divergente) la grossit. En conséquence, les moirés obtenus ont des sens de rotation opposés. Une figure de moiré ondulée traduit la présence d'aberrations optiques dans la lentille.~>>

``The moiré patterns are formed from the superimposition of two random dot patterns: an original and a second pattern generated following a linear or nonlinear transformation of the original. Though each set is random, a variety of different spatial patterns such as circles, spirals, hyperbolae, can be generated by introducing correlations between the two sets of dots. In this image~\ref{circular}, for each dot there is a corresponding ``partner'' dot that lies along the circumference of a circle centered at the point of rotation of the two images. The visual system is able to decode these correlations, thereby perceiving the underlying global transformation.''
\end{quote}
\begin{center}
\url{http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Glass_patterns}
\end{center}
The article mentioned above contains a history of the physiological interpretations of the perception of moiré patterns and we reproduced the beginning of the paragraph.

The authors Leon Glass and Matthew A. Smith propose the following transformations:
\begin{align*}
x'&= ax \cos \theta - by\sin \theta\\
y'&= ax \sin \theta + by\cos \theta
\end{align*}
which give the following Eigenvalues:
\begin{equation*}
\lambda_\pm = \frac{(a+b)\cos\theta\pm\sqrt{(a-b)^2-(a+b)^2 \sin^2\theta}}{2}
\end{equation*}
Another article of Leon Glass:
\begin{center}
\url{http://www.medicine.mcgill.ca/physio/glasslab/pub_pdf/dots_mi_2002.pdf}
\end{center}
We added the terms $(x_0,y_0)$ to be able to also illustrate translations:
\begin{align*}
x' &= ax \cos \theta - by\sin \theta +x_0 \\
y' &= ax \sin \theta + by\cos \theta +y_0
\end{align*}
$\theta$ is the angle of rotation between the two layers. The values of $a$ and $b$ are scaling factors respectively for $x$ and $y$.

\textbf{Note:} We can draw superposed layers within a given square of 10 cm length. We can scale the image with the PSTricks key \verb+unit=+.

The radius of the dots is random, it is between 0 and 2 pt. The color of the points of the first layer is fixed with the PSTricks key \verb+linecolor=+ and the color of the second layer with the PSTricks key \verb+fillcolor=+.

\subsection{The command \Lcs{psRandomDot}}

Emin Gabrielyan presents on
\begin{center}
\url{https://docs.switzernet.com/people/emin-gabrielyan/070212-random-moire/}
\end{center}
another amazing moiré pattern (his second example).

A plate perforated with holes (the \emph{revealing layer}), is placed on top of a fixed layer (the \emph{base layer}) filled with the digit ``2'', and then rotated.

These holes of the revealing layer are arranged randomly, and the digits ``2'' are arranged on the base layer at exactly the same places (just larger than the holes and rotated by -90 degrees). Both layers are therefore correlated---this is the necessary condition for the existence of this random moiré phenomenon.

Why do we see the digit ``2'' as a \emph{halo} with a magnifying effect as a function of the angle---upright or upside down according to the sign of the angle? The holes of the revealing layer cover the digits ``2'' of the base layer and these superposed parts reconstruct an enlarged digit ``2''; what is the explanation of this phenomenon?


\bigskip

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psRandomDot}\OptArgs\Largr{x , y}
\end{BDef}

The command \Lcs{psRandomDot} contains the options \nxLkeyword{hole=}, \nxLkeyword{r=}, \nxLkeyword{p=}, \nxLkeyword{k=}, \nxLkeyword{symbole=}, \nxLkeyword{rotate=}, \nxLkeyword{PSfont=}, \nxLkeyword{fontsize=}, \nxLkeyword{vadjust=} and \nxLkeyword{hadjust=}.

The optional argument \Largr{x , y} sets up the dimensions \texttt{x} and \texttt{y} of the image. If not chosen $(10,10)$ is taken by default.

\end{tabularx}
\end{quote}

\textbf{Principle:}

\begin{enumerate}
\item We draw a path (newpath) that starts along a square (or a rectangle) anti-clockwise.
\item On a 2D grid, where points are setup with a constant distance of \texttt{p}, the centers of the circle/square shaped holes (with dimensions \texttt{r}) are then randomly distributed around each of the points on the grid within a circle with the \emph{distribution radius} $\rho = k\cdot p$. (The bigger \texttt{k}, the more disorder. The bigger \texttt{p}, the less points inside the given grid of a square/rectangle base layer.)
\end{enumerate}

\textbf{Additional Remark:} For a list of some more \emph{PostScript font names}, look up the appendix on page~\pageref{sec:PSF}.

\section{Glass-patterns}

\emph{Glass-patterns} result from a superposition of two random dotted layers---a first original layer and a second layer which is a transformed layer of the original.

These patterns received their names from Leon Glass.


\subsection{The command \Lcs{psGlassPattern}}

\begin{BDef}
\Lcs{psGlassPattern}\OptArgs
\end{BDef}

The command \Lcs{psGlassPattern} contains the options \nxLkeyword{function=} and \nxLkeyword{layers=true/false}.

\medskip

\begin{quote}
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{ @{} l >{\ttfamily}l X @{} }\toprule
\textbf{Name}      & \textbf{Default} & \textbf{Meaning}\\\midrule
\Lkeyword{function}    & 5 r mul t 5 mul sin neg   & The equation of the function\\
                      & 0.5 mul 1 add mul 2.5 sub  & \\
                      && \texttt{r} and \texttt{t} are the variables of the function in polar coordinates\\
                      && \verb-r=sqrt(x^2+y^2)-, \verb+t=theta+\\
%%
\Lkeyword{layers}    & true  & Both layers are shown. If set to \texttt{false}, only the revealing layer with the hidden shape of the function is shown.\\
\bottomrule
\end{tabularx}
\end{quote}

\textbf{Note:} The dimensions of the layers are 15 cm x 15 cm and can be modified with \texttt{unit=}.

\bigskip

\textbf{Remarks:}
\begin{itemize}
\item The key \texttt{function=} is the equation of a function in polar coordinates with the variables \texttt{r} (radius coordinate) and \texttt{t}, which is an angle in degrees.

   The star-like functions are of the type: \texttt{z=r*(1-0.5*cos(theta))}, with each value of \texttt{z} there corresponds a star-like function with the equation (in polar coordinates):

   \texttt{r=z/(1-0.5*cos(theta))}

   The equation of a function can either be entered with RVN (Reverse Polish Notation = PostScript notation) or when the PSTricks key \texttt{algebraic=true} is set, it is possible to enter the equation in algebraic notation (therefore we need to transform the variable \texttt{t} from degrees into radians which can be done with the substitution \texttt{t -> t*Pi/180}.
\item If the key \texttt{layers=false} is set to false, only the layer with the hidden shape of the function is shown.
\item The colors of the randomly arranged dots can be chosen with the PSTricks keys \texttt{linecolor=} (for the first layer) and \texttt{fillcolor=} (for the second layer).
\item The size and shape of the dots can be setup with the PSTricks keys \texttt{dotsize=} and \texttt{dotstyle=}.
\end{itemize}


\newpage


\textbf{Example 1:}

Here a citation from Isaac Amidror from his book:

``The Theory of the Moiré Phenomenum'', Volume II: Aperiodic Layers, \textbf{3-18: Synthesis of a layer superposition having a predefined fixed locus.}

\begin{quote}\itshape
``Design layer transformations $\mathbf{g}_1(x,y)$ and $\mathbf{g}_2(x,y)$ that will produce in the superposition of two initially identical random screens a fixed locus consisting of a star-like curve that surrounds the origin as shown in the figure on the front cover of this book. Hint: In this case, you may consider a top-opened conic surface having star-like level lines, such as $z=r(1+0.5\cos5\theta)$, or, possibly, $z=r/(1+0.5\cos5\theta)$, which gives a slightly different star. You may adjust the orientation of the star by replacing $\cos$ by $\sin$ or by $-\sin$, as seems suitable. In order to have this surface intersect the $x,y$ plane along a star, you need to lower it by some constant $z_0$: $z=r(1+0.5\cos5\theta)-z_0$. But if you wish to obtain a more complex surface that intersects the $x,y$ plane on a family of concentric stars, you may consider a surface such as: $z=\sin(r(1+0.5\cos5\theta))$.''

The reason to finally setup this PSTricks package came from a post card ``\textit{turn the top part}''---bought years ago in a boutique of the \emph{Centre Beaubourg} in Paris---showing up this quite spectacular phenomenon of the \emph{moiré effect} and the following code was quickly ready made to redesign it within PSTricks.

\subsection{The contribution of ``\textit{éditions Kangourou}''}

``\textit{Le Kangourou des mathématiques}'': \textcolor{orange}{\url{http://www.mathkang.org/}} published a revue in 2002, ``\textit{Les malices du Kangourou}'' that contains a magnificent article from pages 18 to 26 titled ``\textit{Mirifiques et mirobolants moirés}'' and on the back cover ``\textit{La règle à moirer}'' (``\textit{The ruler}''). The article and the ruler are available at the following addresses:
\begin{center}

The ruler can be purchased at the following address:

\end{center}
In the article the sketches are very beautiful and the part ``\textit{Mathématisation du phénomène}'' is remarkable! It contains the following moirés:
\begin{itemize}
 \item a network of parallel straight lines superposed each with a rotation in different direction;
 \item shifted superposition of two networks consisting of radial rays (or rather sectors);
 \item shifted superposition of two frames of Fresnel rings, well known as Newton's rings observed in optics.

\caption{Moiré: parallel lines}
\end{figure}
\indent For $t=\TAU=0$, we get the two lines $\mathrm{OS_2}$ and $\mathrm{OS_1}$; they obviously have the same angle $\THETA$ with the axis $\mathrm{O}y$.

The curves of the intersection points, which correspond to the small diagonals of the parallelograms, satisfy the following condition:
\begin{equation*}
t-\TAU=\MU=\mathrm{constant}
\end{equation*}
\indent Adding and reordering the equations~(\ref{eq:droites}):
\begin{align*}
2x\cos\THETA&=(b+c\MU)(t+\TAU)\\
2y\sin\THETA&=b\MU+c(t^2+\TAU^2)=b\MU+c(\MU^2+2t\TAU)
\end{align*}
\indent To complete the elimination, we will use the following relation:
\begin{equation*}
(t+\TAU)^2-4t\TAU=\MU^2
\end{equation*}
Thus:
\begin{equation}
\frac{4x^2\cos^2\THETA}{(b+c\MU)^2}-\frac{4y\sin\THETA}{c}+\frac{2b\MU}{c}+\MU^2=0\label{parabole}
\end{equation}
\indent The wanted curves are parabolas which have the O$y$ axis in common.

Its vertices are given by:
\begin{equation}
y=\frac{\MU(2b+c\MU)}{4\sin\THETA}
\label{sommets}
\end{equation}

\itemBoua The parameter $c$ is small compared to the parameter $b$, so the equations simplify.

The equation~(\ref{parabole}) becomes:
\begin{equation*}
\frac{4x^2\cos^2\THETA}{b^2}-4y\sin\THETA+2b\MU=0
\end{equation*}

\indent This is the same parabola for all the values of $\MU$ sliding parallely to O$y$. The vertices are given by:
\begin{equation}
y=\MU \frac{b}{2\sin\THETA}
\label{eq:sommets2}
\end{equation}
The radius of curvature at the vertex of the parabola is:
\begin{equation*}
\mathrm{R}=\frac{b^2}{2c}\frac{\sin\THETA}{\cos^2\THETA}
\end{equation*}

\indent If the parallel straight lines are equidistant $(c=0)$, the parabolas degenerate to straight lines~(\ref{eq:sommets2}); in other words, the radius of curvature becomes infinite.
\\
\itemBoua To make an experiment, we trace with ``\textit{China ink}'' on a paper 51 parallel lines with a length of i. e. 20~cm, where the distance between two adjacent lines increases from 2~mm (between the first two lines) to 3~mm (between the last two lines), following the formula:
\begin{equation*}
s=2t+0.01t^2
\end{equation*}

\indent We take a photo by reducing to the half or a quarter. We generate two diapositives\footnote{spelling of the time.}. We realize the phenomenon when placing one over the other by rotating one of them.

We think that if you had followed the given instructions, you might be as well convinced---as we are---it would have been a pity to have left this beautiful demonstration ``\textit{of that time}'' in oblivion!


\subsection{The humble contributions of our group}

These demonstrations contain:
\begin{enumerate}
\item the moirés of Newton. In fact it is a construction similar to that of the Fresnel rings. Here the progression of the squares is such that the areas between two consecutive squares are equal to the area of the central square. One out of every two intervals is made opaque. The resulting moiré figures are equilateral hyperbolas.
\item the moirés obtained by the superposition of Fresnel rings and a network of parallel lines result as well in Fresnel rings.
\end{enumerate}
The source files (\LaTeX) and pdf are found within the repository:

\subsection{The construction of a Gauss network}

This method is discussed on page 136 of the book ``\textit{Les phénomènes naturels}'' edited in 1978 by the revue ``\textit{Pour la Science}'' and distributed by the Berlin editions.
\begin{quote}\itshape
<<~The Gauss network is obtained by drawing a series of equidistant vertical lines on a Gaussian curve, then by drawing parallel oblique lines passing through the points of intersection between the vertical lines and the Gaussian curve.~>>
\end{quote}


\subsubsection{Gaussian curve}

\begin{equation*}
y=a\mathrm{e}^{-(kx)^2}
\end{equation*}
\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture}(-6,-0.5)(6,3.5)

                 }
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}


\subsubsection{Determination of the points of intersection}\label{sec:Gauss}

The equidistant vertical line network has for equation: $x=ne$, $e$ is the spacing and $n$ is an integer.

The ordinates of the intersection points are: $y_n=a\mathrm{e}^{-(kne)^2}$. Within the following figure, we set the spacing between the points on the Gaussian curve with the key \texttt{E=0.5} (in cm).
\begin{center}

\uput[90](! 5.5 E1 mul 1){\textcolor{red}{\texttt{E=0.5}}}
\end{pspicture}
\end{center}


\subsubsection{Drawing the network of the straight lines}

We determine the equations of the straight lines passing through these points and which are inclined by an angle $\alpha$ with respect to the horizontal. This is to setup with the key \texttt{Alpha=} (in degrees).

The general equation of such a line is given by: $y=x\tan(\alpha)+b$, we determine $b$ to go through one of the previous points.
\begin{equation*}
ne\tan(\alpha)+b=a\mathrm{e}^{-(kne)^2}
\end{equation*}
so we get $b$.
\begin{equation*}
b=a\mathrm{e}^{-(kne)^2}-ne\tan(\alpha)
\end{equation*}


\newpage


For every value of $n$ we get a straight line.
\begin{equation*}
y=x\tan(\alpha)+a\mathrm{e}^{-(kne)^2}-ne\tan(\alpha)
\end{equation*}
Let's draw some of these straight lines. Setting $a=3$, $k=0.5$, $-20<n<+20$, $e=0.5$ and $\alpha=70^{\mathrm{o}}$

\begin{center}
\begin{pspicture*}(-6,-1)(6,10)

 }
\end{pspicture*}
\end{center}
\begin{verbatim}

\psdot(A)
\rput(A){\psline(! -4 -4 m mul)(! 4 4 m mul)}
 }
\end{pspicture*}
\end{verbatim}
The last step is to translate these lines into PostScript code.

\textbf{Mathematization}

Equidistant radii that increase like: $r_n=n\cdot a$, with $a>0$.

We have
\begin{align*}
(x-c)^2+y^2&=k^2p^2\\
(x+c)^2+y^2&=k^2q^2
\end{align*}
It is necessarily: $p-q=m\in\mathbb{Z}$, thus
\begin{align*}
p&=\frac{1}{k}\sqrt{(x-c)^2+y^2}\\
q&=\frac{1}{k}\sqrt{(x+c)^2+y^2}
\end{align*}
and $p-q=m$
\begin{gather*}
\sqrt{(x-c)^2+y^2}-\sqrt{(x+c)^2+y^2}= k m\\
r_p=p\cdot k\qquad r_q=q\cdot k\\
r_p-r_q=(p-q)\cdot k=m\cdot k
\end{gather*}
The points of the moiré curves are such that the difference in distances to the two centers is constant. The moiré curves are hyperbolas focussing the centers of circles.

We pose: $a=\frac{km}{2}$ and $b^2=c^2-a^2$. The equations of this family of hyperbolas are written like:
\begin{align*}
x&=a\cosh(t)\\
y&=b\sinh(t)
\end{align*}
or:
\begin{align*}
x&=\frac{a}{\cos(t)}\\
y&=b\tan(t)
\end{align*}
If we go from a point of intersection $(p,q)$ to a point $(p+1,q-1)$, the sum of the distances remains constant. As a result, we say:
\begin{equation*}
r_p+r_q=(p+q)\cdot k=n\cdot k
\end{equation*}
This family of moiré curves are ellipses with equations like:
\begin{equation*}
x=a\cos(t)\quad y=b\sin(t)
\end{equation*}
with:
\[
b^2=a^2-c^2
\]

\end{align*}
\begin{align*}
p&=\frac{x}{a}\\
q&=x^2+y^2
\end{align*}

\begin{equation*}
\left(x-\frac{1}{2a}\right)^2+y^2=m+\frac{1}{4a^2}
\end{equation*}
This family of moiré curves are circles with the center at $(\frac{1}{2a},0)$ and with a radius of $r_m=\sqrt{m+\frac{1}{4a^2}}$

\textbf{Mathematization}

The radii of the Fresnel circles increase: $r_n=\sqrt{n}$.

The radii of the equidistant circles increase: $r_n=n\cdot a$, with $a>0$.

The centers of the circles are placed at $(x_M,0)$ and $(-x_M,0)$, we have $p$ and $q$ as integers:
\begin{align*}
(x-x_M)^2+y^2&=p\\
(x+x_M)^2+y^2&=a^2q^2\\
p&=(x-x_M)^2+y^2\\
q&=\frac{1}{a}\sqrt{(x+x_M)^2+y^2}
\end{align*}
One moiré curve line is determined by:  $p-q=m\in\mathbb{Z}$, thus:
\begin{equation*}
(x-x_M)^2+y^2-\frac{1}{a}\sqrt{(x+x_M)^2+y^2}=m
\end{equation*}
which is the implicit equation of a moiré curve line with $m$.

\textbf{Mathematization}

The abscissa of the edges of the square with $x>0$ increase with: $x_n=\frac{1}{4}a^n$, with $a>1$.

The radii increase with: $r_n=\frac{1}{4}b^n$, with $b>1$.

We have
\begin{align*}
x_p&=\frac{1}{4}a^p\\
r_q^2&=x^2+y^2\\
x^2+y^2&=\frac{1}{16}b^{2q}
\end{align*}
If we consider the point determined by the intersection $p\cap q$, the next point will be $(p+1)\cap (q+1)$, the next one at $(p+2)\cap (q+2)$, etc., so that the difference between the indices remains constant. As a result, the moiré lines are characterized by the relation $p-q=m \in \mathbb{Z}$, $m$ determines a moiré curve.
\begin{align*}
p&=\frac{\ln(4x)}{\ln a}\\
q&=\frac{\ln[16(x^2+y^2)]}{2\ln b}
\end{align*}
and $p-q=m$
\begin{equation*}
\ln(4x)^{\frac{1}{\ln a}}-\ln[16(x^2+y^2)]^{\frac{1}{2\ln b}}=m
\end{equation*}
finally gives
\begin{equation*}
\frac{(4x)^{\frac{1}{\ln a}}}{[16(x^2+y^2)]^{\frac{1}{2\ln b}}}=\text{e}^m
\end{equation*}
We transform this implicit equation into a polar equation by setting $\rho^2=x^2+y^2$ and $x=\rho\cos\theta$.
%Remarquons que pour le point $(x=0,y=0)$ correspond à $\theta=\pi/2$.

Setting $\alpha=\frac{1}{\ln a}$ and $\beta=\frac{1}{2\ln b}$. The equation becomes:
\begin{gather*}
\frac{\rho^\alpha(\cos\theta)^\alpha\cdot 4^{\alpha}}{\rho^{2\beta}\cdot 4^{2\beta}}=\text{e}^m\\
\rho^{\alpha-2\beta}(\cos\theta)^\alpha=\text{e}^m\cdot 4^{2\beta-\alpha}\\
\rho=\frac{1}{4}\left(\frac{\mathrm{e}^m}{(\cos\theta)^{\alpha}}\right)^{\frac{1}{\alpha-2\beta}}
\end{gather*}
We can trace some elements of this family of curves:\label{sec:theoryEnd}
