The second Little UV Camera (LUVCam2) mission
Emily Hu, Suresh Sivanandam, Albert Lau +12
The second Little UltraViolet Camera (LUVCam2) is a 80mm-diameter dual UV-optical space telescope that will observe the UV flares around low-mass stars, with planned flight as a $\…
A report on the First Technology Demonstration mission of the Little UV Camera (LUVCam1)
Coby Silayan, Suresh Sivanandam, Aaron Tohuvavohu +13
Here we report on the status of the first on-orbit technology demonstration of the Little UV Camera (LUVCam1). LUVCam1 is a 0.4U payload aboard the 2U cubesat GRBBeta that was laun…
The Complete Catalog of Gamma-Ray Transients Observed by GRBAlpha & VZLUSAT-2 CubeSat Missions
Marianna Dafcikova, Jakub Ripa, Andras Pal +45
We present the largest sample of gamma-ray transients observed by any CubeSat mission so far. Observations were acquired by a 1U CubeSat GRBAlpha, the smallest astrophysical space…
LUVCam: A high-performance, low-cost, UV/optical camera for the future of astronomy in space
Aaron Tohuvavohu, Suresh Sivanandam, Jean-Christophe Fronteddu +23
Astronomy-grade cameras with robust performance and heritage in the space environment have long been costly, substantially limiting capacity for space-based astronomy and creating…
Long-term performance of SiPMs in space environment measured by GRBAlpha, GRBBeta, and VZLUSAT-2 CubeSats
Jakub Ripa, Filip Munz, Marianna Dafcikova +46
In this work, we report the successful application of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) in gamma-ray burst (GRB) detectors used in CubeSats operating in the low Earth orbit (LEO) ra…
Instrument response generation using high-resolution 3D voxelization of GRBAlpha and VZLUSAT-2 satellites with MEGAlib
Jean-Paul Breuer, Masato Yokota, Yasushi Fukazawa +24
Pathfinder gamma-ray burst (GRB) detecting CubeSat missions such as GRBAlpha and VZLUSAT-2 have demonstrated the successful application of scintillator detectors with silicon photo…
