TL;DR: In this article, an extension of the energy range, enabling calibrations of hard X-ray optics over a broad energy band beam (up to 50 keV), was reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, a prototype Eletroformed-Nickel-Replicated (ENR) mirror module is presented for the Constellation-X mission, which consists of 5 shells of diameters from 150 mm to 280 mm and of 426 mm total length.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed multilayers with ultra-short periods between 1 and 2 nm based on the material system WC/SiC. This material system was selected because it possesses very sharp and stable interfaces.

TL;DR: The Extreme-ultraviolet Stellar Characterization for Atmospheric Physics and Evolution (ESCAPE) mission as mentioned in this paper is an astrophysics Small Explorer proposed to NASA to characterize the highenergy radiation environment in the habitable zones (HZs) around nearby stars.

TL;DR: Simbol-X as discussed by the authors is a mirror module of 100 electroformed Nickel shells with a multilayer reflecting coating with the goal of achieving an HEW better than 20 arcsec from 0.5 up to 30 keV and a goal of 40 arcsec at 60 keV.
