Microchannel plate detector development for ultraviolet astronomy
S. Diebold, J. Barnstedt, J. Bayer +8
Observational data from the UV wavelength range is crucial to solve several astrophysical puzzles. Consequently, there are a number of upcoming UV missions from CubeSats up to the…
The IRT Telescope on board the THESEUS mission
Diego Gotz, Aline Meuris, Eric Doumayrou +28
We present the Infra-Red Telescope (IRT), which is part of the payload of the THESEUS mission, one on the three phase A candidate missions for the M7 slot of ESA (launch date 2037)…
Progress towards a microchannel plate detector with AlGaN photocathode and cross-strip anode for ultraviolet astronomy
S. Diebold, J. Barnstedt, L. Conti +9
Microchannel plates (MCPs) were the driving detector technology for ultraviolet (UV) astronomy over many years, and still today MCP-based detectors are the baseline for several pla…
Stratospheric Balloons as a Complement to the Next Generation of Astronomy Missions
Philipp Maier, Maria Ångerman, Jürgen Barnstedt +23
Observations that require large physical instrument dimensions and/or a considerable amount of cryogens, as it is for example the case for high spatial resolution far infrared astr…
Stratospheric balloons as a platform for the next large far infrared observatory
Philipp Maier, Jürgen Wolf, Alfred Krabbe +21
Observations that require large physical instrument dimensions and/or a considerable amount of cryogens, as it is the case for high spatial resolution far infrared (FIR) astronomy,…
Towards a European Stratospheric Balloon Observatory -- The ESBO Design Study
Philipp Maier, Jürgen Wolf, Thomas Keilig +18
This paper presents the concept of a community-accessible stratospheric balloon-based observatory that is currently under preparation by a consortium of European research institute…
Status of the STUDIO UV balloon mission and platform
A. Pahler, M. Ångermann, J. Barnstedt +24
Stratospheric balloons offer accessible and affordable platforms for observations in atmosphere-constrained wavelength ranges. At the same time, they can serve as an effective step…
Microchannel-Plate Detector Development for Ultraviolet Missions
Lauro Conti, Jürgen Barnstedt, Sebastian Buntrock +19
The Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics in Tübingen (IAAT) has a long-term experience in developing and building space-qualified imaging and photon counting microchannel-plate…
Mapping Diffuse Emission in Lyman UV band
Li Ji, Zheng Lou, Jinlong Zhang +38
The CAFE (Census of warm-hot intergalactic medium, Accretion, and Feedback Explorer) and LyRIC (Lyman UV Radiation from Interstellar medium and Circum-galactic medium) have been pr…
MCP detector development for UV space missions
Lauro Conti, Jürgen Barnstedt, Lars Hanke +7
We are developing imaging and photon counting UV-MCP detectors, which are sensitive in the wavelength range from far ultraviolet to near ultraviolet. A good quantum efficiency, sol…
