<strong>Simulation</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>Simbol</strong>-X <strong>telescope</strong><br />

Introduction<br />

<strong>Simulation</strong> tool for any grazing incidence <strong>telescope</strong> with deformations<br />

Application to <strong>Simbol</strong>-X:<br />

• understand and predict <strong>the</strong> behavior <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> instrument<br />

• optimize <strong>the</strong> configuration <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> instrument and assess <strong>the</strong> performance <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>telescope</strong>:<br />

effective area<br />

angular resolution<br />

precision needed for <strong>the</strong> sensors<br />

tolerance on <strong>the</strong> drifts<br />

image reconstruction<br />

Outline <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> presentation:<br />

I – Geometrical simulation<br />

II – Physical simulation<br />

III – Dynamical simulation<br />

IV – Performances<br />
