X-RAY MIRRORS

At the Mirror Laboratory of the EUD X-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory, we research and develop mirror systems for astronomical X-ray telescopes. Thin-foil X-ray optics are pioneered and developed in the laboratory. These X-ray mirrors provide light-weight, broad band and low cost telescopes for astronomical X-ray imaging.
