In accordance with Rayleigh's criterion, the closest central maximum of another point source that could lie in this pattern and still be barely resolvable A) would be at point A. B) would be at point B. C) would be at point C. D) would be at point D. E) must lie outside all discernible diffraction rings.$ The white circles in the figure represent minima of the diffraction pattern formed when a bright point-source object is viewed through a small circular opening.
