Aim
The main objective of the
Action is to increase the knowledge in the field of X-Ray and Neutron
interactions with solid surfaces and interfaces and to develop
fabrication and characterization methods for advanced innovative
optical elements for applications in this extreme short wavelength
range.
In particular, the following goals will be addressed :
Increase the knowledge in the field of X-ray and Neutron Optics, which is necessary to develop new type of optical elements adapted to this energy range, as well as to improve the efficiency and versatility of those optics
Extend the field of applications of very short wavelength optical elements on current x-ray and neutron sources but also to test new fields now foreseen due to better characteristics of the more recent and of the planned new sources.
Reinforce the interactions and the cooperation between the different national groups of designers and users of x-ray and neutron optics.
The different tasks
WG1 : Working Group for theoretical calculations (contacts Marion Bowler and Frédéric Ott)
WG2 : Working Group for surface preparation and tests. (contacts François Polack and Mourad Idir)
WG3 : Working Group for fabrication and test of interferential mirrors. (contacts Thomas Krist and Jon Verhoven)
WG4 : Working Group for fabrication and test of diffractive and refractive optics. (contacts Jaromir Hdry and Alexei Erko)
