POSTER DETAILS
» Use of piezoelements in future X-ray astronomy
Presenter: Peter Vanya
There are plans to build great orbital astronomical X-ray laboratories like IXO and Generation-X in next 10 years or so. Part of the research is expected to be done in the Czech Republic. The poster discusses the available piezoactuators suitable for the applications in active X-ray optics. The goal is the computer control of X-ray optical surfaces in order to achieve superior angular resolution.
