3D MHD simulations of coronal loops heated via magnetic braiding I. Continuous driving
Gabriele Cozzo, Paola Testa, Juan Martinez-Sykora +13
The nature and detailed properties of the heating of the million-degree solar corona are important issues that are still largely unresolved. Nanoflare heating might be dominant in…
STROBE-X High Energy Modular Array (HEMA)
Anthony L. Hutcheson, Marco Feroci, Andrea Argan +64
The High Energy Modular Array (HEMA) is one of three instruments that compose the STROBE-X mission concept. The HEMA is a large-area, high-throughput non-imaging pointed instrument…
Coronal energy release by MHD avalanches II. EUV line emission from a multi-threaded coronal loop
G. Cozzo, J. Reid, P. Pagano +13
MHD kink instability can trigger the fragmentation of a twisted magnetic flux tube into small-scale current sheets that dissipate as aperiodic impulsive heating events. This instab…
HERMES: Gamma Ray Burst and Gravitational Wave counterpart hunter
G. Ghirlanda, L. Nava, O. Salafia +67
Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) bridge relativistic astrophysics and multi-messenger astronomy. Space-based gamma/X-ray wide field detectors have proven essential to detect and localize th…
Virtual reality for the analysis and visualization of scientific numerical models
S. Orlando, M. Miceli, U. Lo Cicero +1
The complexity of the data generated by (magneto)-hydrodynamic (HD/MHD) simulations requires advanced tools for their analysis and visualization. The dramatic improvements in virtu…
The Athena X-ray Integral Field Unit: a consolidated design for the system requirement review of the preliminary definition phase
Didier Barret, Vincent Albouys, Jan-Willem den Herder +296
The Athena X-ray Integral Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer, studied since 2015 for flying in the mid-30s on the Athena space X-ray Observatory, a versatile ob…
Filters for X-ray detectors on Space missions
Marco Barbera, Ugo Lo Cicero, Luisa Sciortino
Thin filters and gas tight windows are used in Space to protect sensitive X-ray detectors from out-of-band electromagnetic radiation, low-energy particles, and molecular contaminat…
The HERMES-Technologic and Scientific Pathfinder
F. Fiore, L. Burderi, M. Lavagna +12
HERMES-TP/SP (High Energy Rapid Modular Ensemble of Satellites Technologic and Scientific Pathfinder) is a constellation of six 3U nano-satellites hosting simple but innovative X-r…
The scientific payload on-board the HERMES-TP and HERMES-SP CubeSat missions
Y. Evangelista, F. Fiore, F. Fuschino +22
HERMES (High Energy Rapid Modular Ensemble of Satellites) Technological and Scientific pathfinder is a space borne mission based on a LEO constellation of nano-satellites. The 3U C…
Manufacturing and testing a thin glass mirror shell with piezoelectric active control
D. Spiga, M. Barbera, A. Collura +12
Optics for future X-ray telescopes will be characterized by very large aperture and focal length, and will be made of lightweight materials like glass or silicon in order to keep t…
Active shape correction of a thin glass/plastic X-ray mirror
D. Spiga, M. Barbera, S. Basso +9
Optics for future X-ray telescopes will be characterized by very large aperture and focal length, and will be made of lightweight materials like glass or plastic in order to keep t…
