Which consequence results when chromatic aberration impacts interferometer mirrors?

💡 Explanation

Reduced fringe visibility occurs because chromatic aberration causes different wavelengths to focus at different points; therefore, the **superposition principle** creates blurred interference patterns, rather than sharply defined fringes, because the wavelengths do not constructively interfere perfectly.
