Abstract
This paper provides a summary of the cryogenic performance of the SIRTF optical system. The SIRTF optical system includes a primary mirror, a secondary mirror, a metering structure, an interface simulator and an autocollimation test flat. For each of these elements, the room temperature and cryogenic performance has been established.
