Be is a high-strength, high thermal conductivity material. As a low-Z metal, it allows high-energy photons to penetrate the mirror body, so that majority of the SR power is dissipated, resulting in a significantly reduced thermal stress and distortion on the mirror surface. In this paper, we describe a Finite Element Analysis method of accurately simulating the SR-induced thermal stress on the beryllium mirrors at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring at various particle beam conditions. The simulations consider the energy dependence of X-ray attenuation in beryllium. The depth-dependent distribution of the power absorbed by the mirror is represented by separate heating zones within the mirror model. The results help set the operational safety limit for the mirrors-ensuring that the SR-induced thermal stress is below the elastic deformation limit and estimate the mirror surface distortion at high beam currents. The simulated surface distortion is consistent with optical measurements.}}, }
