Research Abstract

For a development of the new X-ray interferometer, we made and evaluated X-ray mirrors and X-ray beam splitters. Also we developed a coherent X-ray source for the laboratory demonstration of the X-ray interferometer with C-K X-rays and with pin-holes. We developed a simulation code and confirmed that we can obtain fringe patterns with our CCD camera. We also found that, in order to measure a size of a black hole, we need about 20m base line.
