The reason for this name can be appreciated in the figure rays showing the acceptance angle on the right. en.wikipedia.org

Rays of light enter the fiber with different angles to the fiber axis, up to the fiber's acceptance angle. en.wikipedia.org

The photoreceptor response is significantly lower than expected by the reduction in the photoreceptor acceptance angle of light entering near the edge of the pupil. en.wikipedia.org

This demand of a large acceptance angle, however, is in conflict with the requirement of optimum depth resolution dependency on the detection geometry. en.wikipedia.org

In any case, the acceptance angle of the detector system should be as large as possible to minimize the radiation damage. en.wikipedia.org

For example, the parabolic-trough concentration gives about 1/3 of the theoretical maximum for the design acceptance angle, that is, for the same overall tolerances for the system. en.wikipedia.org

However, other errors also affect the acceptance angle. en.wikipedia.org

For a given concentration, nonimaging optics combine the widest possible acceptance angles with high efficiency and, therefore, are the most appropriate for use in solar concentration. en.wikipedia.org

In concentration optics, it relates the acceptance angle with the maximum concentration possible. en.wikipedia.org

The limiting angle is called the acceptance angle, and the rays that are confined by the core/cladding boundary are called guided rays. en.wikipedia.org
