Imaging and spectral performance of CdTe double-sided strip detectors for the Hard X-ray Imager onboard ASTRO-H
Kouichi Hagino, Hirokazu Odaka, Goro Sato +20
The imaging and spectral performance of CdTe double-sided strip detectors (CdTe-DSDs) was evaluated for the ASTRO-H mission. The charcterized CdTe-DSDs have a strip pitch of 0.25 m…
Fine-pitch semiconductor detector for the FOXSI mission
Shin-nosuke Ishikawa, Shinya Saito, Hiroyasu Tajima +11
The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI) is a NASA sounding rocket mission which will study particle acceleration and coronal heating on the Sun through high sensitivity obse…
The Si/CdTe semiconductor Compton camera of the ASTRO-H Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD)
Shin Watanabe, Hiroyasu Tajima, Yasushi Fukazawa +23
The Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD) is one of the instrument payloads onboard ASTRO-H, and will cover a wide energy band (60--600 keV) at a background level 10 times better than inst…
ASTRO-H White Paper - Shock and Acceleration
F. Aharonian, Y. Uchiyama, D. Khangulyan +4
We discuss the prospects for a progress to be brought by ASTRO-H in the understanding of the physics of particle acceleration in astrophysical environments. Particular emphasis wil…
Soft Gamma-ray Detector for the ASTRO-H Mission
Hiroyasu Tajima, Roger Blandford, Teruaki Enoto +26
ASTRO-H is the next generation JAXA X-ray satellite, intended to carry instruments with broad energy coverage and exquisite energy resolution. The Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD) is…
Observation of an energetic radiation burst from mountain-top thunderclouds
H. Tsuchiya, T. Enoto, T. Torii +9
During thunderstorms on 2008 September 20, a simultaneous detection of gamma rays and electrons was made at a mountain observatory in Japan located 2770 m above sea level. Both emi…
