  Parabolic reflector - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A parabolic reflector (also known as a parabolic dish or a parabolic mirror) is a reflective device formed in the shape of a paraboloid of revolution.
The parabolic reflector functions due to the geometric properties of the paraboloid shape: if the angle of incidence to the inner surface of the collector equals the angle of reflection, then any incoming ray that is parallel to the axis of the dish will be reflected to a central point, or "focus".
The Olympic Flame is lit using a parabolic reflector concentrating sunlight.

 Parabolic Reflector (Dish) Antennas for SETI   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Although numerous antenna options exist for amateur SETI stations, by far the most popular approach is to use a three- to five-meter (ten- to sixteen-foot) satellite TV dish, with a prime-focus feedhorn appropriate to the radioastronomy frequencies.
Feedhorn options include the cylindrical waveguide hydrogen-line feed distributed by Jeffrey M. Lichtman at Radio Astronomy Supplies, as well as existing dish feeds for the 23 cm (1296 MHz) amateur band and the GOES series of 1691 MHz weather satellites.
While 10 dB edge illimination of the dish is common for communications applications, radioastronomers usually prefer to under-illuminate their dishes, as a means of reducing antenna noise temperature and sidelobes.

A new form of satellite antenna, which does not use a directed parabolic dish and can be used on a mobile platform such as a vehicle, was recently announced by the University of Waterloo.
A satellite dish is a type of parabolic reflector antenna designed with the specific purpose of transmitting signals to and/or receiving from satellites.

Radio waves emanating from celestial bodies are received by specially constructed antennas, called radio telescopes, whose use corresponds to that of the optical telescope in observing visible light.
In the most common design, a parabolic “dish” replaces the mirror of the reflecting optical telescope.
This dish serves to focus the radio waves into a concentrated signal that is then filtered, amplified, and finally analyzed using a computer.

 Question Corner -- How To Build A Parabolic Dish
While it is difficult to build a parabolic shape with a large amount of precision (in the absence of expensive machinery), there are a few tricks which allow anyone to build a crude parabolic dish.
One method is to cut out a two dimensional parabolic shape from some rigid material and then use it to help you model some three dimensional shape (out of aluminum foil or chicken wire, for instance).
The focus of the parabolic shape depends on the rate of the rotation and also on the density of the liquid (if you were using something other than water).

Little or no reflected energy is lost because of pot shadows, so combined with a superior small parabolic design, the 96% diffused reflectivity, and a sturdy anodized aluminum support base, it’s at least 15%-20% more efficient that perfect centered parabolic dishes.
This parabolic cooker has such a high level of full spectrum solar reflectivity it will even heat food or water to temperatures above 150 degrees F on light overcast or partly cloudy days when there is little or no wind.
Besides the finished assembled 900 parabolic dishes with the base supports, individual ABS 24" uncoated reflector blanks and SolaReflex coated 900 reflective dishes are available without support stands for hobbyists, students, scientists and developing nations that could assemble them on site to reduce labor costs.
