an object beam onto a film 106. It is disposed on an optical path along which the laser beam travels, and it is further composed of first to fifth cylindrical lenses 107 to 111, and a spherical lens 112. The reference optical system 104 is so arranged as to project onto the surface of the film 106 a reference beam having the same wavelength as the object beam, make the reference beam interfere with the object beam similarly projected, and produce and record an interference image on the surface of the film 106. The reference optical system 104 consists of sixth and seventh cylindrical lenses 113 and 114 disposed on the optical path through which the reference beam passes, and shares the above-mentioned fifth cylindrical lens 111 withto $182 billion, are among the more eye-catching revelations in the report to be released Thursday by the bipartisan Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission.

The details underscore the degree to which Goldman--the most profitable securities firm in Wall Street history--benefited directly from the massive emergency bailout of the nation's financial system, a deal crafted on the watch of then-Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, who had previously headed the bank.
