Scientific paper

The total reflection of X rays at glancing angles of incidence is applied to the design of optical devices for use in X-ray astronomy. The instruments which can be used for solar and stellar observations include: filter-collimators which consist of arrays of flat or bent plates, light-buckets with coarse or medium spatial resolution for focusing on small detector, on-axis imaging devices for high resolution imaging of part of an extended source, and true imaging devices with high spatial resolution over an extended field of view.
