HERMES Pathfinder & SpIRIT: a progress report
F. Fiore, M. Trenti, Y. Evangelista +87
HERMES Pathfinder is an in-orbit demonstration consisting of a constellation of six 3U cubesats hosting simple but innovative X-ray/gamma-ray detectors for the monitoring of cosmic…
Design, integration, and test of the scientific payloads on-board the HERMES constellation and the SpIRIT mission
Y. Evangelista, F. Fiore, R. Campana +41
HERMES (High Energy Rapid Modular Ensemble of Satellites) is a space-borne mission based on a constellation of nano-satellites flying in a low-Earth orbit (LEO). The six 3U CubeSat…
The XGIS instrument on-board THESEUS: the detection plane and on-board electronics
Fabio Fuschino, Riccardo Campana, Claudio Labanti +32
The X and Gamma Imaging Spectrometer instrument on-board the THESEUS mission (selected by ESA in the framework of the Cosmic Vision M5 launch opportunity, currently in phase A) is…
