XMM-Newton Science Analysis System . ... Meta Index / Home Page The position of the center of emission lines is provided per instrument as a function of wavelength, reflection order, and off-axis angle of the source. This task is useful, when off-axis pointings are evaluated in order to optimize the coverage of the emission spectrum by the RGS detector, e.g. if the intention is to avoid inter-chip gaps. ...

RTT150 . ... The primary mirror 1 reflects light to the secondary mirror 2 which sends the converging beam of light to the system of four flat mirrors 3, 4, 5 and 6. That allows the beam of light to leave the telescope strictly along its polar axis and be collected in Coude focus. ... That's why at any tube position (for any rotation along the declination axis) beam of light parallel to the principal axis after reflection on mirror 3 follows the direction of declination axis. ...
