GRBAlpha: the smallest astrophysical space observatory -- Part 1: Detector design, system description and satellite operations
András Pál, Masanori Ohno, László Mészáros +42
Aims. Since launched on 2021 March 22, the 1U-sized CubeSat GRBAlpha operates and collects scientific data on high-energy transients, making it the smallest astrophysical space obs…
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…
Detailed Design of the Science Operations for the XRISM mission
Yukikatsu Terada, Matt Holland, Michael Loewenstein +36
XRISM is an X-ray astronomical mission by the JAXA, NASA, ESA and other international participants, that is planned for launch in 2022 (Japanese fiscal year), to quickly restore hi…
Simulations of expected signal and background of gamma-ray sources by large field-of-view detectors aboard CubeSats
Gábor Galgóczi, Jakub Řípa, Riccardo Campana +19
In recent years the number of CubeSats (U-class spacecrafts) launched into space has increased exponentially marking the dawn of the nanosatellite technology. In general these sate…
The simulation framework of the timing-based localization for future all-sky gamma-ray observations with a fleet of Cubesats
Masanori Ohno, Norbert Werner, Andras Pal +22
The timing-based localization, which utilize the triangulation principle with the different arrival time of gamma-ray photons, with a fleet of Cubesats is a unique and powerful sol…
A software toolkit to simulate activation background for high energy detectors onboard satellites
G. Galgoczi, J. Ripa, G. Dilillo +3
A software toolkit for the simulation of activation background for high energy detectors onboard satellites is presented on behalf of the HERMES-SP collaboration. The framework emp…
