While the effects of the former are usually well described by the geometrical optics, the latter is diffractive/interferential in nature and determined by a distribution of defects that cover several decades in the lateral scale (from a few millimeters to a few microns). Clearly, reducing the level of scattered light is crucial to improve the focusing of the collected radiation, particularly for astronomical telescopes that aim to detect faint light signals from our Universe. Telescopes are typically arranged in multiple reflections configuration and the behavior of the multiply-scattered radiation becomes difficult to predict and control. Also it is difficult to disentangle the effect of surface scattering from the PSF degradation caused by the shape deformation of the optical elements. This paper presents a simple and unifying method for evaluating the contribution of optical surfaces defects to the two-dimensional PSF of a multi-reflections system, regardless of the classification of a spectral range as "geometry" or "roughness". This method, entirely based on Huygens-Fresnel principle in the far-field approximation, was already applied in grazing-incidence X-ray mirrors and experimentally validated for a single reflection system, accounting for the real surface topography of the optics. In this work we show the extension of this formalism to a double reflection system and introducing real microroughness data. The formalism is applied to a MAGIC-I panel mirror that was fully characterized, allowing us to predict the PSF and the validation with real measurements of the double reflection ASTRI telescope, a prototype of CTA-SST telescope. <P /> | Titolo del convegno: | Reflection, Scattering, and Diffraction from Surfaces V | Luogo del convegno: | San Diego, CA, USA | Periodo del convegno: | 28-29 August 2016 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/24415 | URL: | https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/9961/1/Two-dimensional-PSF-prediction-of-multiple-reflection-optical-systems-with/10.1117/12.2235410.short | ISSN: | 0277-786X | ISBN: | 9781510603134 | DOI: | 10.1117/12.2235410 | Bibcode ADS: | 2016SPIE.9961E..0NT | Fulltext: | open |
