Imaging and Spectral Performance of a Wide-gap CdTe Double-Sided Strip Detector

Shunsaku Nagasawa, Takahiro Minami, Shin Watanabe +1

The fourth flight of the Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager sounding rocket experiment (FOXSI-4) aimed to achieve the first imaging spectroscopic observations of mid-to-large class…

FOXSI-2: Upgrades of the Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager for its Second Flight

Steven Christe, Lindsay Glesener, Camilo Buitrago-Casas +12

The Focusing Optics X-ray Solar Imager (FOXSI) sounding rocket payload flew for the second time on 2014 December 11. To enable direct Hard X-Ray (HXR) imaging spectroscopy, FOXSI m…

2-mm-Thick Large-Area CdTe Double-sided Strip Detectors for High-Resolution Spectroscopic Imaging of X-ray and Gamma-ray with Depth-Of-Interaction Sensing

Takahiro Minami, Miho Katsuragawa, Shunsaku Nagasawa +4

We developed a 2-mm-thick CdTe double-sided strip detector (CdTe-DSD) with a 250 um strip pitch, which has high spatial resolution with a uniform large imaging area of 10 cm an…

Wide-gap CdTe Strip Detectors for High-Resolution Imaging in Hard X-rays

Shunsaku Nagasawa, Takahiro Minami, Shin Watanabe +1

We propose a new strip configuration for CdTe X-ray detectors, named "Wide-gap CdTe strip detector", in which the gap between adjacent strips is much wider than the width of each s…

On the faintest solar coronal hard X-rays observed with FOXSI

Juan Camilo Buitrago-Casas, Lindsay Glesener, Steven Christe +23

Solar nanoflares are small eruptive events releasing magnetic energy in the quiet corona. If nanoflares follow the same physics as their larger counterparts, they should emit hard…
