Scientific paper
The first satellite in a planned series of Soviet X- and gamma ray satellites will be equipped with two high throughput telescopes. The authors' design is optimized with respect to high energy throughput of the telescope. The mechanical design and the status of the surface preparation technologies are described. Various X-ray and optical test facilities for the measurement of surface roughness, "orange peel", and figure errors are described. An optical parallel beam has been established and results from the first mounted mirrors are discussed. The design goal is an angular resolution of 2' (HEW). The first results seem to indicate that this is feasible and the possibility of going down to 1.5' exists.
