Noise discrimination method based on charge distribution of CMOS detectors for soft X-ray
Xinchao Fang, Jirong Cang, Qiong Wu +2
Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensors have been widely used as soft X-ray detectors in several fields owing to their recent developments and unique advantages. The…
Compact CubeSat Gamma-Ray Detector for GRID Mission
Jia-Xing Wen, Xu-Tao Zheng, Jian-Dong Yu +18
Gamma-Ray Integrated Detectors (GRID) mission is a student project designed to use multiple gamma-ray detectors carried by nanosatellites (CubeSats), forming a full-time all-sky ga…
Discrimination of background events in the PolarLight X-ray polarimeter
Jiahuan Zhu, Hong Li, Hua Feng +22
PolarLight is a space-borne X-ray polarimeter that measures the X-ray polarization via electron tracking in an ionization chamber. It is a collimated instrument and thus suffers fr…
Modeling the in-orbit background of PolarLight
Jiahui Huang, Hua Feng, Hong Li +23
PolarLight is a gas pixel X-ray polarimeter mounted on a CubeSat, which was launched into a Sun-synchronous orbit in October 2018. We build a mass model of the whole CubeSat with t…
In-orbit Operation and Performance of the CubeSat Soft X-ray Polarimeter PolarLight
Hong Li, Xiangyun Long, Hua Feng +21
PolarLight is a compact soft X-ray polarimeter onboard a CubeSat, which was launched into a low-Earth orbit on October 29, 2018. In March 2019, PolarLight started full operation, a…
PolarLight: a CubeSat X-ray Polarimeter based on the Gas Pixel Detector
Hua Feng, Weichun Jiang, Massimo Minuti +20
The gas pixel detector (GPD) is designed and developed for high-sensitivity astronomical X-ray polarimetry, which is a new window about to open in a few years. Due to the small mas…
A Transmissive X-ray Polarimeter Design For Hard X-ray Focusing Telescopes
Hong Li, Hua Feng, Jianfeng Ji +11
The X-ray Timing and Polarization (XTP) is a mission concept for a future space borne X-ray observatory and is currently selected for early phase study. We present a new design of…
