What is Active Optics Alignment for IXO Telescope about?

The document discusses advancements in the active alignment system for the International X-ray Observatory (IXO) optics, focusing on the challenges of aligning approximately 7000 secondary mirror segments with primary mirrors for high-resolution soft x-ray spectroscopy. A combination of a coordinate measuring machine and a double-pass Hartmann test alignment system has been developed to achieve the required alignment accuracy of less than 2 arcseconds. The paper presents the alignment technique, its effecti
