This paper gives a review and focuses on future possible applications of Kirkpatrick-Baez grazing incidence X-ray optical systems in space and astronomy, we also discuss in detail applications in other areas of science, where (in contrary to astronomy) these systems already have demonstrated their performance and advantages.
