2 -Instruments for X-ray Astronomy- Agree? 1. Telescopes are build with Grazing Incidence Mirrors with FL of 3-12m plus Pixel Detectors resolution mirror is exceptional. It is very much difficult to reproduce it now. primarily 3. Slits, Masks or Collimators are used for wide FOV surveys, in which angular resolution is limited to ~10arcminutes. 4. Interferometers have been proposed. Some function in lab, but application in orbit are even more difficult.

Stacking the image with a period of dd in the analysis, accurate source profile is obtained. Image Width θθ = ffff/zz = 0.4 ff 0.2 dd / zz 5μμμμ 50cccc See Hayashida+ SPIE Proc 2016 X-ray Pixel Detector (CCD/CMOS) Stack Chandra Resolution with a 50cm size satellite?

6 But, but, Talbot Effect can be employed Talbot Effect Parallel Light through a grating makes Self Image of the grating at periodic distances.

11 Multi Image X-ray Interferometer Module (or Mission) = MIXIM X-ray Grating with a few~10 s µm pitch and X-ray Imaging Spectrometer Select X-ray Events of which energy is within specific band around the Talbot condition. Band-pass ΔΔΔΔ/λλ of about 10% (for m=2; 20% for m=1) can be utilized. Wider than Si-detector energy resolution of 1~2%. Good for X-ray CCD and X-ray CMOS.
