Early results from GRBAlpha and VZLUSAT-2
Jakub Ripa, Andras Pal, Masanori Ohno +37
We present the detector performance and early science results from GRBAlpha, a 1U CubeSat mission, which is a technological pathfinder to a future constellation of nanosatellites m…
Geant4 simulation of the residual background in the ATHENA Wide Field Imager from protons deflected by the Charged Particle Diverter
Gábor Galgóczi, Jean-Paul Breuer, Valentina Fioretti +11
X-ray telescopes opened up a new window into the high-energy universe. However, the last generation of these telescopes encountered an unexpected problem: their optics focused not…
Athena charged particle diverter simulations: effects of micro-roughness on proton scattering using Geant4
Jean-Paul Breuer, Gábor Galgóczi, Valentina Fioretti +12
The last generation of X-ray focusing telescopes operating outside the Earth's radiation belt discovered that optics were able to focus not only astrophysical X-ray photons, but al…
