Ground calibration plan for the Athena/X-IFU microcalorimeter spectrometer

Alexeï Molin, François Pajot, Marc Audard +24

The X-ray Integral Field Unit is the X-ray imaging spectrometer on-board one of ESA's next large missions, Athena. Athena is set to investigate the theme of the Hot and Energetic U…

Unveiling the origin of XMM-Newton soft proton flares II. Systematics in the proton spectral analysis

T. Mineo, V. Fioretti, S. Lotti +7

Low-energy protons entering the field of view of the XMM-Newton telescope scatter with the X-ray mirror surface and might reach the X-ray detectors on the focal plane. They manifes…

Unveiling the origin of XMM-Newton soft proton flares: I. Design and validation of a response matrix for proton spectral analysis

Valentina Fioretti, Teresa Mineo, Simone Lotti +8

Low-energy (<300 keV) protons entering the field of view of XMM-Newton are observed in the form of a sudden increase in the background level, the so-called soft proton flares, affe…
