Laue Lens vs Schwarzschild Couder: 3× Science Gains?
A 200% increase in photon flux is observed when sub-millimeter crystal arrays replace conventional mirrors, effectively tripling the science yield over Schwarzschild-Couder designs. This gain stems from doubled collecting area and superior diffraction efficiency, enabling clearer high-energy images of cosmic sources. Space : Space Science and Technology Since the early 1960s
