国外大型地基望远镜主镜支撑综述

摘要

The primary mirror support is a key technology for the large ground-based telescope. The primary mirror support directly affect telescope's direction accuracy and detection distance. This paper introduces some currently existing international representative telescopes' primary mirror axial support and lateral support structure. Key points and some principles for primary mirror support design are summarized. That would offer some references for our large telescope development.%对于大型地基望远镜来说,主镜支撑是关键技术之一,主镜支撑效果直接影响望远镜的观测能力,文章详细介绍了目前国际上具有代表性的一些望远镜主镜的底支撑和侧支撑方法和结构等,总结了主镜支撑的几个原则,期望对我们从事大口径望远镜的研制提供一些借鉴意义.
