Materials evaluation for the Origins Space Telescope

The Origins Space Telescope (Origins) study team prepared and submitted a Mission Concept Study Report for the 2020 Decadal Survey in Astrophysics. During the study, a Materials Working Group was formed to evaluate materials for Origins. The Materials Working Group identified material candidates and evaluated the candidates using driving requirements and key material considerations. The evaluation resulted in several options to aid the study team in making a materials selection for the mission concept. Our paper details the approach to the materials evaluation and the results.
