Highly efficient thermal deformation optimization method for smart-cut mirrors over the entire photon energy range

Abstract

A method to optimize the notches of water-cooled white-beam mirrors over the entire photon energy range is proposed. A theoretical method is used to quantitatively evaluate the influence of the thermal load on the thermal deformation of a mirror. The result of theoretical calculations and finite-element analysis are consistent, which proves the feasibility of the method. The root mean square of the curvatures of the thermal deformation of the white-beam mirror over the entire photon energy range can be minimized. This method greatly simplifies the design work of water-cooled white-beam mirrors.
