Assembly of the FOXSI-4 Mirror ModulesThe Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager 4 (FOXSI 4) is a heliophysics sounding rocket experiment that is currently in its fourth launch campaign. The payload is comprised of seven 2 m focal length X-ray telescopes, which each consist of a grazing incidence mirror module that focuses x-rays onto an imaging detector. For this fourth flight, Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) designed, built, and tested three new high-angular-resolution optics. This paper describes the design and assembly of the FOXSI 4 mirror modules.
