X-Ray Telescopes: Calibration

Scientific paper

The authors have developed a comparatively small soft X-ray source for application in their test facilities, which are used at present to support the developments of the astrophysical space projects XMM and AXAF. The instrument comprises a commercially available colour television tube for generation of the electron beam, which is focused on exchangeable metal films serving as targets. The X-rays are taken off after having transversed the foil target and have a sufficient spectral purity with regard to the experimental requirements. The authors describe the measurements on the local X-ray intensity profile of the focus, the spectral features of the beam and present the resulting performance data. A special development could be used as calibration sources in X-ray telescopes.
