The European X-ray Observatory, EXOSAT, to be launched in 1981 will carry two Wolter I x-ray telescopes, each having a geometric area of ~100 cm(2). A qualification model of the Wolter I optics has been manufactured and extensively tested in optical and x-ray beams. The influence of manufacturing tolerances on the resolution of the optics is discussed, and mechanical and optical measurements of those deviations are presented. Finally, the x-ray imaging quality of the optics is presented, and the correlation with the achieved tolerances is shown.
将于1981年发射的欧洲X射线天文台EXOSAT将携带两台沃尔特一号X射线望远镜,每台的几何面积约为100平方厘米。沃尔特一号光学系统的一个鉴定模型已经制造出来,并在光学光束和X射线光束中进行了广泛测试。讨论了制造公差对光学系统分辨率的影响,并给出了这些偏差的机械和光学测量结果。最后,展示了光学系统的X射线成像质量,并显示了其与所达到公差的相关性。
