OPERATING CAPACITY LIMITS OF COOLED AND UNCOOLED OPTICAL ELEMENTS

Analysis has been made of the possibilities of using uncooled and cooled optical elements, for example, laser mirrors with restricted motion of the optical surface. A simple method comparing and choosing the heat exchanger of the mirror and the mirror itself is proposed
