Despite some differences in their specific approaches, the synergy of the two institutes has always been good, focusing on the common goal of developing a technology able to meet the outstanding requirements for future X-ray telescopes: i.e. large collecting areas, low mass and good angular resolution. This synergy has in the last year resulted in an active collaboration for the production of a Joint Integrated Module (JIM) that puts together the expertise of the two research groups. In particular, the indirect slumping approach of MPE has been employed for the manufacturing of X-ray mirror segments that have been integrated into a kind of X-ray Optical Unit following the approach developed at INAF-OAB. The module has then been tested in X-ray at the MPE PANTER facility, in Neuried. The several steps and the results of this joint activity are reviewed and discussed in this paper.ELETTRONICOenJIM: a joint integrated module of glass x-ray optics for astronomical telescopesConference paper10.1117/12.21879952-s2.0-84951765136000366020700033https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/9603/1/JIM--a-joint-integrated-module-of-glass-x-ray/10.1117/12.2187995.short2015SPIE.9603E..11PFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
