X-ray Studies of Planetary Systems: A 2020 Decadal Survey White Paper
Jaesub Hong, Suzanne Romaine, Larry Nittler +5
Whether it is fluorescence emission from asteroids and moons, solar wind charge exchange from comets, exospheric escape from Mars, pion reactions on Venus, sprite lighting on Satur…
SmallSat Solar Axion and Activity X-ray Imager (SSAXI)
Jaesub Hong, Suzanne Romaine, Almus Kenter +8
Axions are a promising dark matter candidate as well as a solution to the strong charge-parity (CP) problem in quantum chromodynamics (QCD). We describe a new mission concept for S…
The Extreme Physics Explorer and Large Area Micro-Channel Plate Optics
Michael Garcia, Martin Elvis, Jon Chappell +10
The Extreme Physics Explorer (EPE) is a concept timing/spectroscopy mission that would use micro-channel plate optics (MCPO) to provide 4 square meters effective area focused to ~1…
A Vigorous Explorer Program
Martin Elvis, Matthew Beasley, Roger Brissenden +47
Explorers have made breakthroughs in many fields of astrophysics. The science from both these missions contributed to three Nobel Prizes - Giacconi (2002), Mather, and Smoot (2006)…
Simbol-X Hard X-ray Focusing Mirrors: Results Obtained During the Phase A Study
G. Tagliaferri, S. Basso, G. Borghi +16
Simbol-X will push grazing incidence imaging up to 80 keV, providing a strong improvement both in sensitivity and angular resolution compared to all instruments that have operated…
