POEMMA-Balloon with Radio: A multi-messenger, multi-detector balloon payload
J. Adams, J. Alfaro, D. Allard +123
A review of the current status of the field of Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray (UHECR) including a summary of remaining open questions was presented in the white paper "Ultra-High Ene…
Centroiding Undersampled PSFs with a Lookup Table
Kevin J. Ludwick, Ashley Mazingo
We present a method of centroiding undersampled point spread functions (PSFs) that may be useful, especially when dithering is not an option. If the profile of the expected PSF is…
The Camera and Readout for the Trinity Demonstrator and the EUSO-SPB2 Cherenkov Telescope
Mahdi Bagheri, Srikar Gadamsetty, Eliza Gazda +9
We developed a modular silicon photomultiplier camera to detect Earth-skimming PeV to EeV tau neutrinos with the imaging atmospheric Cherenkov technique. We built two cameras, a 25…

Accounting for Clock-Induced Charge Production in the EMCCD Gain Register
Kevin Ludwick
An electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD) is often used for taking images with space telescopes and other devices. Photons hit the pixels and photo-electrons are create…
EUSO-SPB1 Mission and Science
EUSO Collaboration, G. Abdellaoui, S. Abe +292
The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon 1 (EUSO-SPB1) was launched in 2017 April from Wanaka, New Zealand. The plan of this mission of opportunity on a N…
Developments and results in the context of the JEM-EUSO program obtained with the ESAF Simulation and Analysis Framework
S. Abe, J. H. Adams, D. Allard +172
JEM--EUSO is an international program for the development of space-based Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Ray observatories. The program consists of a series of missions which are either u…
EUSO-SPB2 Fluorescence Telescope Calibration and Field Tests
Viktoria Kungel, Matteo Battisti, George Filippatos +8
The Extreme Universe Space Observatory on a Super Pressure Balloon 2 (EUSO-SPB2), successfully launched from Wanaka, New Zealand on May 13, 2022, is a precursor for a space-based a…
Roman CCS White Paper: Characterizing the Galactic population of isolated black holes
Casey Y. Lam, Natasha Abrams, Jeff Andrews +34
Although there are estimated to be 100 million isolated black holes (BHs) in the Milky Way, only one has been found so far, resulting in significant uncertainty about their propert…
The need for focused, hard X-ray investigations of the Sun
Lindsay Glesener, Albert Y. Shih, Amir Caspi +46
Understanding the nature of energetic particles in the solar atmosphere is one of the most important outstanding problems in heliophysics. Flare-accelerated particles compose a hug…
Magnetic Energy Powers the Corona: How We Can Understand its 3D Storage & Release
Amir Caspi, Daniel B. Seaton, Roberto Casini +12
The coronal magnetic field is the prime driver behind many as-yet unsolved mysteries: solar eruptions, coronal heating, and the solar wind, to name a few. It is, however, still poo…
Improving Multi-Dimensional Data Formats, Access, and Assimilation Tools for the Twenty-First Century
Daniel B. Seaton, Amir Caspi, Roberto Casini +12
Heliophysics image data largely relies on a forty-year-old ecosystem built on the venerable Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) data standard. While many in situ measurements us…
COMPLETE: A flagship mission for complete understanding of 3D coronal magnetic energy release
Amir Caspi, Daniel B. Seaton, Roberto Casini +12
COMPLETE is a flagship mission concept combining broadband spectroscopic imaging and comprehensive magnetography from multiple viewpoints around the Sun to enable tomographic recon…
Improved ranking statistics of the GstLAL inspiral search for compact binary coalescences
Leo Tsukada, Prathamesh Joshi, Shomik Adhicary +37
Starting from May 2023, the LIGO Scientific, Virgo and KAGRA Collaboration is planning to conduct the fourth observing run with improved detector sensitivities and an expanded dete…
Systematic errors in the maximum likelihood regression of Poisson count data: introducing the overdispersed chi-square distribution
M. Bonamente
This paper presents a new method to estimate systematic errors in the maximum-likelihood regression of count data. The method is applicable in particular to X-ray spectra in situat…
The Signal-to-Noise Ratio for Photon Counting After Photometric Corrections
Kevin Ludwick
Photon counting is a mode of processing astronomical observations of low-signal targets that have been observed using an electron-multiplying charge-coupled device (EMCCD). In phot…
