Scientific paper

The authors present the fabrication methods, testing and evaluation techniques, and performance results for the mirrors for the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE). The finest mirror produced to date has a measured half energy width of 8arcsec at optical wavelengths. With a polished nickel surface, the telescope throughput was 35% at 44 Å and 60% at 256 Å. The surface roughness is 20 Å rms.
