ABSTRACT:
A flange assembly of an optical system has a first flange, a compensation element and a second flange. The flanges and the compensation element are substantially axially symmetric both flanges (2, 2′) being suitable for being connected to other components of the optical system in a non-destructive, non-positive axially separable fashion. The two flanges consist of different materials with different coefficients of linear thermal expansion. The compensation element is radially soft, but connects the two flanges rigidly in their relative spatial position.
