Electroforming replication is an essential technique for fabricating full-shell, grazing-incidence mirrors for use in space, laboratories, and synchrotron experiments. For X-ray astronomy, a nickel electroforming replication process was developed and is used to produce lightweight and high-resolution X-ray mirrors. In addition, the electroforming process for fabricating X-ray mirrors for use in synchrotron experiments has undergone remarkable development over the past decade. We expect that the use of the ground-based electroforming replication process for the production of optics for Xray astronomy will lead to further improvements in the performance of X-ray telescopes. This paper describes our ongoing development efforts in the nickel-electroforming replication process, including the results of a pilot study. |
