A heat-absorbing prime focus diaphragm for LEST.
Abstract
The general principles and details of the design and construction of the proposed heat-absorbing diaphragm for LEST are outlined. The results of a theoretical analysis of the expected performance of the new device, including an estimate of the coolant temperature rise are presented. The authors conclude with a brief discussion of the integration of the device with the LEST structure and systems and with recommendations for future work.
