Npupil - Npupil is the number of sampling points across the pupil diameter.

Npupil is used to set the sampling in the transform planes associated with the lens.  For example, the sampling of an input field in the object plane is determined by LAMBDA*Npupil/(NA*NHighNA), where NA is the NA of the object space and NHighNA is the base-2 number that describes the size of the transform field.  NHighNA is specified in the system preferences, and is usually a number like 256 or 512.
