In-flight performance of the MXT Camera
M. Moita, A. Meuris, P. Ferrando +8
On-board the SVOM mission, the Microchannel X-ray Telescope observes the soft X-ray band of the gamma-ray bursts afterglows. The so-called lobster-eye optics focuses X-rays to the…
The data analysis pipeline for the Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM mission
P. Maggi, L. Michel, D. Gotz +10
The Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) mission was launched in June 2024. It is a joint Sino-French collaboration designed to detect, localize, and…
The Scientific Performance of the Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM Mission
D. Gotz, M. Boutelier, V. Burwitz +17
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) will be the first focusing X-ray telescope based on a "Lobster-Eye" optical design to be flown on Sino-French mission SVOM. SVOM will be dedi…
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the SVOM mission: in-flight scientific performance
D. Götz, S. Crepaldi, E. Doumayrou +14
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope (MXT) is a compact and lightweight focusing X-ray telescope, which is part of the space payload of the SVOM mission. The main goal of the MXT instr…
Scientific performance of on-board analyses for the SVOM X-ray telescope MXT
F. Robinet, C. Van Hove, M. Moita +8
The Microchannel X-ray Telescope on board the Space-based multi-band astronomical Variable Objects Monitor (SVOM) satellite detects and localizes the X-ray afterglow of gamma-ray b…
Dipolar interaction and incoherent quantum tunneling: a Monte Carlo study of magnetic relaxation
A. Cuccoli, A. Fort, A. Rettori +2
We study the magnetic relaxation of a system of localized spins interacting through weak dipole interactions, at a temperature large with respect to the ordering temperature but lo…
