The defocused observations of bright sources with Athena/X-IFU
E. S. Kammoun, D. Barret, P. Peille +5
The X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer of ESA's Athena X-ray observatory. It will deliver X-ray data in the 0.2-12 keV band with an unprece…
A test platform for the detection and readout chain for the Athena X-IFU
Gabriele Betancourt-Martinez, François Pajot, Sophie Beaumont +26
We present a test platform for the Athena X-IFU detection chain, which will serve as the first demonstration of the representative end-to-end detection and readout chain for the X-…
Thermal simulations of temperature excursions on the Athena X-IFU detector wafer from impacts by cosmic rays
Samantha Lynn Stever, Philippe Peille, Marcel Bruijn +5
We present the design and implementation of a thermal model, developed in COMSOL, aiming to probe the wafer-scale thermal response arising from realistic rates and energies of cosm…
