Mirror Cell LATERAL Support Large Research Scopes

Hello everybody,

I know there are some people in this group that work (either paid or as
amateurs) around very large research telescopes of the world . I am
interested in the topic of lateral mirror support methods , actuators and
mirror to cell attachment , as well as mirror cell design for large scopes
.. I am aware of what is used by amateurs , I have had some glimpses of some
implementations for large scopes, but I'd like to see a scientific approach
, some peer reviewed work that shows how and why things are done the way
they're done in supporting the very largest mirrors . I'm interested in
scopes like the LBT and other Earth based instruments , although the topic
of next generation space based instruments mirror support is interesting too
.. I am not interested in multiple or segmented mirror instruments . Any
pointers highly appreciated.

best regards,
Matt Tudor
