Development of Dual-Gain SiPM Boards for Extending the Energy Dynamic Range

Daniel Shy, Richard S. Woolf, Eric A. Wulf +5

Astronomical observations with gamma rays in the range of several hundred keV to hundreds of MeV currently represent the least explored energy range. To address this so-called MeV…

Development of a CsI Calorimeter for the Compton-Pair (ComPair) Balloon-Borne Gamma-Ray Telescope

Daniel Shy, Richard S. Woolf, Clio C. Sleator +7

There is a growing interest in astrophysics to fill in the observational gamma-ray MeV gap. We, therefore, developed a CsI:Tl calorimeter prototype as a subsystem to a balloon-base…

Radiation Damage of Pixelated CdZnTe Due to High-Energy Protons

Daniel Shy, David Goodman, Ryan Parsons +5

Pixelated CdZnTe detectors are a promising imaging-spectrometer for gamma-ray astrophysics due to their combination of relatively high energy resolution with room temperature opera…

Development of the ComPair gamma-ray telescope prototype

Daniel Shy, Carolyn Kierans, Nicolas Cannady +22

There is a growing interest in the science uniquely enabled by observations in the MeV range, particularly in light of multi-messenger astrophysics. The Compton Pair (ComPair) tele…

The All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory eXplorer (AMEGO-X) Mission Concept

Regina Caputo, Marco Ajello, Carolyn Kierans +52

The All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory eXplorer (AMEGO-X) is designed to identify and characterize gamma rays from extreme explosions and accelerators. The main science th…

The Compton Spectrometer and Imager Project for MeV Astronomy

John A. Tomsick, Steven E. Boggs, Andreas Zoglauer +33

The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a 0.2-5 MeV Compton telescope capable of imaging, spectroscopy, and polarimetry of astrophysical sources. Such capabilities are made p…
