Scientific paper

From a viewpoint of the up-to-date requirements, fundamental scientific and technological problems arising in design and manufacture of the optical reflecting telescopes are formulated as compared to those of the refracting systems. Nontraditional materials, such as beryllium, silicon, silicon carbide, etc., are shown to be capable of successful competition with the traditional optical materials used for the telescope mirror. Certain technological features and results obtained at GOI Metal Optics Division are briefly overviewed concerning the beryllium-based mirrors development.
