Paper Abstract
We present the concepts behind the current alignment and integration technique for a Constellation-X primary-secondary
mirror segment pair prior to an x-ray beam line test. We examine the effects of a passive mount on thin glass x-ray mirror
segments, and the issues of mount shape and environment on alignment. We also investigate how bonding and transfer to a
permanent housing affects the quality of the final image.
