M2 Test Set PDR

12

Reduces stitching errors due to high frequency discontinuities between CGHs.

Single CGH 28”x28” (MHAT)

Collimator 40” CA

larger test aperture allows the entire CA of M2 to be measured as a single zone

shorter collimator height will enable the M2 to be tested with a lower ceiling height

3m
