“…Hence, misalignment of these components and inherent manufacturing caused surface errors must be taken into account as well. Optical aberrations due to those unavoidable effects could be corrected by an active optics correction chain [3]. In this case does not require high dynamic as it is mandatory for the correction of atmospheric turbulence, but an excellent long-term stability in wave front control.…”

“…All investigations are performed within the STOIC (Space Telescope Optical Image Corrector) project in response to an ESA invitation to develop an active optics correction chain for future space telescopes. The baseline space telescope (HYPATIA) being considered in this study, is a Ritchey-Chrétien-Cassegrain-telescope with a 4 m monolithic primary mirror [3]. The active mirror has to be designed for high precision and the ability to maintain a stable shape over long periods of time.…”
