X-ray and optical profiler analysis of electroformed X-ray optics

Electroformed grazing incidence mirrors were tested with X-rays and were measured with an optical profiler. Their total effective areas are greater than about 70 percent of the theoretical values both for 1.5- and 6.4-keV X-rays. The half-power diameters are less than about 2 min of arc at 1.5 keV....

Zusammenfassung:Electroformed grazing incidence mirrors were tested with X-rays and were measured with an optical profiler. Their total effective areas are greater than about 70 percent of the theoretical values both for 1.5- and 6.4-keV X-rays. The half-power diameters are less than about 2 min of arc at 1.5 keV. A design of the mirror array telescope for high energies which has a total effective area of about 1000 sq cm for 7-keV X-rays is presented.
