NAOC Developed a Prototype of Einstein Probe’s Wide-field X-ray Telescope.

National Astronomical Observatories of Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC) has recently developed a prototype of a wide-field X-ray focusing telescope, which is the principal scientific instrument of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission. This work was accomplished by a team of scientists from the EP instrumentation team at NAOC’s X-ray Imaging Laboratory. This is the first time that wide-field X-ray focusing imaging is realized in China.
