Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments herein describe systems, methods, and devices for thermal conditioning of patterning devices at a litho-graphic apparatus. A patterning device cooling system for thermally conditioning a patterning device (202) of a lithographic apparatus is described, the cooling system including a thermal conditioner that thermally conditions the patterning device, and a controller that controls the thermal conditioner to determine a temperature state of the patterning device, determine a production state of the litho-graphic apparatus, and thermally condition the patterning device for exposures based on the temperature state and a production state of the lithographic apparatus.
