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…
The X-ray Integral Field Unit at the end of the Athena reformulation phase
Philippe Peille, Didier Barret, Edoardo Cucchetti +279
The Athena mission entered a redefinition phase in July 2022, driven by the imperative to reduce the mission cost at completion for the European Space Agency below an acceptable ta…
Constraining the origin and models of chemical enrichment in galaxy clusters using the Athena X-IFU
F. Mernier, E. Cucchetti, L. Tornatore +16
The chemical enrichment of the Universe at all scales is related to stellar winds and explosive supernovae phenomena. Metals produced by stars and later spread at the mega-parsec s…
The Filter Wheel and Filters development for the X-IFU instrument on-board Athena
E. Bozzo, M. Barbera, L. Genolet +7
Athena is the large mission selected by ESA in 2013 to investigate the science theme "Hot and Energetic Universe" and presently scheduled for launch in 2028. One of the two instrum…
Development of TES-based detectors array for the X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) on the future x-ray observatory ATHENA
Luciano Gottardi, Hiroki Akamatsu, Didier Barret +10
We are developing transition-edge sensor (TES)-based microcalorimeters for the X-ray Integral Field Unit (XIFU) of the future European X-Ray Observatory Athena. The microcalorimete…
Optimisation of the design for the LOFT Large Area Detector Module
D. Walton, B. Winter, S. Zane +25
LOFT (Large Observatory for X-ray Timing) is an X-ray timing observatory that, with four other candidates, was considered by ESA as an M3 mission (with launch in 2022-2024) and has…
