Observatory science with eXTP
Jean J. M. in 't Zand, Enrico Bozzo, Jinlu Qu +181
In this White Paper we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to Observatory Science targets. These include flaring s…
GAMMA-LIGHT: High-Energy Astrophysics above 10 MeV
Aldo Morselli, Andrea Argan, Guido Barbiellini +39
High-energy phenomena in the cosmos, and in particular processes leading to the emission of gamma- rays in the energy range 10 MeV - 100 GeV, play a very special role in the unders…
The ASIM Mission on the International Space Station
Torsten Neubert, Nikolai Ãstgaard, Victor Reglero +7
The Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) is an instrument suite on the International Space Station (ISS) for measurements of lightning, Transient Luminous Events (TLEs) and…
The Modular X- and Gamma-Ray Sensor (MXGS)of the ASIM Payload on the International Space Station
Nikolai Ãstgaard, Jan E. Balling, Thomas Bjørnsen +32
The Modular X- and Gamma-ray Sensor (MXGS) is an imaging and spectral X- and Gamma-ray instrument mounted on the starboard side of the Columbus module on the International Space St…
Streamer propagation in the atmosphere of Titan and other N2:CH4 mixtures compared to N2:O2 mixtures
Christoph Köhn, Sasa Dujko, Olivier Chanrion +1
Streamers, thin, ionized plasma channels, form the early stages of lightning discharges. Here we approach the study of extraterrestrial lightning by studying the formation and prop…
