The simulation framework of the timing-based localization for future all-sky gamma-ray observations with a fleet of Cubesats

Masanori Ohno, Norbert Werner, Andras Pal +22

The timing-based localization, which utilize the triangulation principle with the different arrival time of gamma-ray photons, with a fleet of Cubesats is a unique and powerful sol…

GRBAlpha: A 1U CubeSat mission for validating timing-based gamma-ray burst localization

András Pál, Masanori Ohno, László Mészáros +26

GRBAlpha is a 1U CubeSat mission with an expected launch date in the first half of 2021. It carries a 75 x 75 x 5 mm CsI(Tl) scintillator, read out by a dual-channel multi-pixel ph…

XL-Calibur -- a second-generation balloon-borne hard X-ray polarimetry mission

Q. Abarr, H. Awaki, M. G. Baring +38

XL-Calibur is a hard X-ray (15-80 keV) polarimetry mission operating from a stabilised balloon-borne platform in the stratosphere. It builds on heritage from the X-Calibur mission,…

Accretion geometry of the black-hole binary Cygnus X-1 from X-ray polarimetry

M. Chauvin, H. -G. Florén, M. Friis +13

Black-hole binary (BHB) systems comprise a stellar-mass black hole and a closely orbiting companion star. Matter is transferred from the companion to the black hole, forming an acc…
