Lobster Eye X-ray Optics

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This chapter describes the history, principles, and recent developments of large field of view X-ray optics based on lobster eye designs. Most of grazing incidence (reflective) X-ray imaging systems used in astronomy and other applications are based on the Wolter 1 (or modified) arrangement. But there are also other designs and configurations proposed for future applications for both laboratory and space environments. Kirkpatrick-Baez (K-B)-based lenses as well as various types of lobster eye optics serve as an example. Analogously to Wolter lenses, all these systems use the principle that the X-rays are reflected twice to create focal images. Various future projects in X-ray astronomy and astrophysics will require large optics with wide fields of view. Both large Kirkpatrick-Baez modules and lobster eye X-ray telescopes may serve as solutions as these can offer innovations such as wide fields of view, low mass, and reduced costs. The basic workings of lobster eye optics using Micro-Pore Optics (MPOs) and their various uses are discussed. The issues and limiting factors of these optics are evaluated, and current missions using lobster eye optics to fulfill their science objectives are reviewed. The Multi-Foil Optics (MFO) approach represents a promising alternative. These arrangements can also be widely applied in laboratory devices. The chapter also examines the details of alternative applications for non-Wolter systems in other areas of science, where some of these systems have already demonstrated their advantages such as the K-B systems which have already found wide applications in laboratories and synchrotrons.
