Calibration database design for the wide-field X-ray telescope on board the Einstein Probe
Huaqing Cheng, Hai-Wu Pan, Yuan Liu +6
The wide-field X-ray telescope (WXT) is the primary payload of the Einstein Probe (EP) mission. Utilizing innovative lobster-eye micro-pore optics (MPO), it achieves an unprecedent…
In-flight calibration of the Wide-field X-ray Telescope on board the Einstein Probe
Huaqing Cheng, Hai-Wu Pan, Yuan Liu +14
By utilizing novel lobster-eye optics, the Wide-field X-ray Telescope (WXT) onboard the Einstein Probe (EP) satellite achieves an unprecedented combination of a large instantaneous…
In-flight calibration of the Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy
Huaqing Cheng, Hai-Wu Pan, Yuan Liu +12
The Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy (LEIA), as a pathfinder of the Wide-field X-ray Telescope (WXT) onboard the Einstein Probe (EP) satellite, is the first lobster-eye focusing X-…
Ground Calibration Result of the Wide-field X-ray Telescope (WXT) onboard the Einstein Probe
Huaqing Cheng, Chen Zhang, Zhixing Ling +24
We report on results of the on-ground X-ray calibration of the Wide-field X-ray Telescope (WXT) built from novel lobster-eye micro-pore optics, onboard the Einstein Probe (EP) sate…
Einstein Probe discovery of EP240408a: a peculiar X-ray transient with an intermediate timescale
Wenda Zhang, Weimin Yuan, Zhixing Ling +136
We report the discovery of a peculiar X-ray transient, EP240408a, by Einstein Probe (EP) and follow-up studies made with EP, Swift, NICER, GROND, ATCA and other ground-based multi-…
Ground calibration and network of the first CATCH pathfinder
Yiming Huang, Jingyu Xiao, Lian Tao +53
The Chasing All Transients Constellation Hunters (CATCH) space mission is focused on exploring the dynamic universe via X-ray follow-up observations of various transients. The firs…
LEIA discovery of the longest-lasting and most energetic stellar X-ray flare ever detected
Xuan Mao, He-Yang Liu, Song Wang +40
The Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy (LEIA) detected a new X-ray transient on 2022 November 7, identified as a superflare event occurring on a nearby K-type giant star HD 251108. T…
Simulation Studies for the First Pathfinder of the CATCH Space Mission
Yiming Huang, Juan Zhang, Lian Tao +42
The Chasing All Transients Constellation Hunters (CATCH) space mission is an intelligent constellation consisting of 126 micro-satellites in three types (A, B, and C), designed for…
Ground Calibration Result of the Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy
Huaqing Cheng, Zhixing Ling, Chen Zhang +22
We report on results of the on-ground X-ray calibration of the Lobster Eye Imager for Astronomy (LEIA), an experimental space wide-field (18.6*18.6 square degrees) X-ray telescope…
