Low Strain Mounting Techniques for Lynx X-ray Optics
Abstract
Low strain mounting of the Lynx mirrors is essential to the telescope image quality. Mount strain must be managed during assembly with precision fixturing, environmental control, and knowledge of adhesive cure shrinkage. The large number of segment and modules for Lynx necessitates a time-efficient, deterministic, and high-quality process.
