GRAPE - A Balloon-Borne Gamma-Ray Polarimeter Experiment
P. F. Bloser, J. S. Legere, J. R. Macri +3
This paper reviews the development status of GRAPE (the Gamma-Ray Polarimeter Experiment), a hard X-ray Compton Polarimeter. The purpose of GRAPE is to measure the polarization of…
Developing a Compton Polarimeter to Measure Polarization of Hard X-Rays in the 50-300 keV Energy Range
J. S. Legere, P. Bloser, J. R. Macri +3
This paper discusses the latest progress in the development of GRAPE (Gamma-Ray Polarimeter Experiment), a hard X-ray Compton Polarimeter. The purpose of GRAPE is to measure the po…
Multipixel characterization of imaging CZT detectors for hard X-ray imaging and spectroscopy
S. V. Vadawale, J. Hong, J. Grindlay +8
We report our in-depth study of Cd-Zn-Te (CZT) crystals to determine an optimum pixel and guard band configuration for Hard X-ray imaging and spectroscopy. We tested 20x20x5mm crys…
Laboratory coded aperture imaging experiments: radial hole coded masks and depth-sensitive CZT detectors
J. Hong, S. V. Vadawale, M. Zhang +5
The proposed black-hole finder mission EXIST will consist of multiple wide-field hard X-ray coded-aperture telescopes. The high science goals set for the mission require innovation…
EXITE2 Observation of the SIGMA Source GRS 1227+025
J. E. Grindlay, P. F. Bloser, Y. Chou +1
We report the EXITE2 hard X-ray imaging of the sky around 3C273. A 2h observation on May 8, 1997, shows a 260 mCrab source detected at in each of two bands (50-70 an…
Cathode depth sensing in CZT detectors
J. Hong, E. C. Bellm, J. E. Grindlay +1
Measuring the depth of interaction in thick Cadmium-Zinc-Telluride (CZT) detectors allows improved imaging and spectroscopy for hard X-ray imaging above 100 keV. The Energetic X-ra…
