STIX imaging I -- Concept
Paolo Massa, Gordon. J. Hurford, Anna Volpara +17
Aims. To provide a schematic mathematical description of the imaging concept of the Spectrometer/Telescope for Imaging X-rays (STIX) on board Solar Orbiter. The derived model is th…
Observation data pre-processing and scientific data products generation of POLAR
Zheng-Heng Li, Jian-Chao Sun, Li-Ming Song +8
POLAR is a compact space-borne detector initially designed to measure the polarization of hard X-rays emitted from Gamma-Ray Bursts in the energy range 50-500keV. This instrument w…
A fully autonomous data center for the space-borne hard X-ray Compton polarimeter POLAR developed at PSI
Hualin Xiao, Wojtek Hajdas, Radaslow Marcinkowski
POLAR is a space-borne hard X-ray Compton polarimeter built by a collaboration of institutes from Switzerland, China and Poland. Precise detection of the polarization can be a powe…
POLAR: Final Calibration and In-Flight Performance of a Dedicated GRB Polarimeter
M. Kole, T. W. Bao, T. Batsch +41
Gamma-ray polarimetry is a new powerful tool to study the processes responsible for the emission from astrophysical sources and the environments in which this emission takes place.…
Calibration of Gamma-ray Burst Polarimeter POLAR
H. L. Xiao, W. Hajdas, T. W. Bao +33
Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the strongest explosions in the universe which might be associated with creation of black holes. Magnetic field structure and burst dynamics may influen…
