The Athena x-ray optics development and accommodation
Abstract
The ATHENA (Advanced Telescope for High ENergy Astrophysics) missionstudies and technology preparation are continuing to progress. Theoptics for this future space observatory is based on the Silicon PoreOptics (SPO), and is being evolved in a joint effort by industry,research institutions and ESA. The SPO technology uses the superbproperties of monocrystalline Silicon, and spins in technologiesdeveloped for the semiconductor industry, benefiting from excellentmaterials, processes and equipment. In a holistic approach the technicaland programmatic challenges of the ATHENA optics are being addressedsimultaneously. A comprehensive Technology Development Plan (TDP) wasdefined and is being implemented to develop this novel X-ray opticstechnology. The performance, environmental compatibility and serialautomated production and testing are being addressed in parallel, aimingat the demonstration of the required technology readiness for theAthena Mission Adopt ion Review (MAR) expected in 2022.
