2019 SPIE Optics & Photonics Conference

Prof. DeRoo and graduate student Dustin Swarm recently presented at the 2019 SPIE Optics & Photonics conference. Dustin presented work he and Prof. DeRoo have done on performance predictions for the Arcus X-ray Spectrometer mission concept, while Prof. DeRoo gave a presentation on the development of curved diffractive X-ray optics (CDXO).
