Scientific paper

The 1-percent calibration accuracy goal of the Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility is being approached by way of an experiment at the National Synchrotron Light Source that will demonstrate the accuracy achievable in reflectance measurements conducted on coated flat mirrors in the 50 eV-12 keV energy range. The coatings will be of commercially produced Au, Ni, and Ir, deposited either by sputtering or by e-beam deposition. Optical constants will be estimated via the reflectance vs. angle-of-incidence method.
