Issue Date: | 2021 | Volume: | Advances in X-Ray/EUV Optics and Components XVI | Editors: | Morawe, Christian; Khounsary, Ali M.; Goto, Shunji | Series: | PROCEEDINGS OF SPIE | Number: | 11837 | First Page: | 25 | Abstract: | The BEaTriX (Beam Expander Testing X-ray) facility, being completed at INAF-Brera Astronomical Observatory, will represent an important step in the acceptance roadmap of Silicon Pore Optics mirror modules, and so ensure the final angular resolution of the ATHENA X-ray telescope. Aiming at establishing the final angular resolution that can be reached and the respective fabrication/positioning tolerances, we have been dealing with a set of comprehensive optical simulations. Simulations based on wave optics were carried out to predict the collimation performances of the paraboloidal mirror, including the effect of surface errors obtained from metrology. Full-ray-tracing routines were subsequently employed to simulate the full beamline. Finally, wavefront propagation simulation allowed us assessing the sensitivity and the response of a wavefront sensor that will be utilized for the qualification of the collimated beam. We report the simulation results and the methodologies we adopted. | Conference Name: | Advances in X-Ray/EUV Optics and Components XVI | Conference Place: | San Diego, California, United States | Conference Date: | 1-5 August, 2021 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/32236 | URL: | https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/85118697138 https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/11837/2595033/Performance-simulations-for-the-ground-based-expanded-beam-x-ray/10.1117/12.2595033.short?SSO=1 |
