Thereby we show and discuss some experimental results and correlate them with simulations. Preliminary results of an ongoing study on other strange animal mirror eyes with potential scientific and technical applications are also discussed. Some of them are based on the principle of multilayer multi-mirror active optics arrangements. The Lobster Eye X-ray optics needs special reflective coatings for a better performance, which are currently developed within the Bavarian-Czech cooperation project JEUMICO.}, subject = {R{\"o}ntgenastronomie}, language = {en} }
