Properties of a transmission grating behind a grazing incidence telescope for cosmic x-ray spectroscopy

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Third-order aberrations are discussed of a transmission grating positioned behind a Wolter type I telescope, using Fermat’s principle. We describe the conditions required to obtain a coma-free grating. The performance of a grating spectrometer for cosmic x-ray spectroscopy is discussed in some detail.
