OG 4.3.05 An Optical Re ector for the CANGAROO-II Telescope

We have been successful in developing light and durable mirrors made of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) laminates for the re ector of the new CANGAROO-II 7 m telescope. The re ector has a parabolic shape (F/1.1) with a 30 m e ective area which consists of 60 small spherical mirrors of CFRP laminates. The orientation of each mirror can be remotely adjusted by stepping motors. After the rs...
