IXPE mirror module assemblies

Expected to launch in 2021 Spring, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Astrophysics Small Explorer Mission with significant contributions from the Italian space agency (ASI). The IXPE observatory features three identical x-ray telescopes, each comprised of a 4-m-focal length mirror module assembly (MMA, provided by MSFC) that focuses x-rays onto a polarization-sensitive, imaging detector (contributed by ASI-funded institutions). This paper summarizes the MMA's design, fabrication, alignment and assembly, expected performance, and calibration plans.
