CELLS is building MINERVA, an X-ray light line designed to support the development of the ATHENA (Advanced Telescope for High Energy Astrophysics) mission. The design of this light line is originally based on the XPBF 2.0 monochromatic beam in Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), in BESSY II. MINERVA will provide metrology capabilities to integrate reflective batteries into a mirror module (MM) and characterize them. Interoperability between MINERVA and XPBF 2.0 will be preserved to reinforce and boost the production and characterization of mirror modules.

In order to achieve the above objectives, several optical elements are required: one (1) positioning hexapod, compatible with the high vacuum (batch1) needed to control the orientation of the sample during measurement; and a laser tracker system (batch2) in permanent use installed near the detector for accurate measurement of the position of the detector.

Supply of a positioning hexapod, compatible with the high vacuum for the BL-25 MINERVA light line of the ALBA Synchrotron Light Laboratory of CELLS
