Charge Sharing Effect on 600 μm Pitch Pixelated CZT Detector for Imaging Applications
Yongzhi Yin, Qi Liu, Dapeng Xu +1
We are currently investigating the spatial resolution of highly pixelated Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) detector for imaging applications. A 20 mm {\times} 20 mm {\times} 5 mm CZT s…
The Hard X-ray Polarimeter X-Calibur - Design and Tests
M. Beilicke, W. R. Binns, J. Buckley +17
X-ray polarimetry promises to give new information about high-energy astrophysical sources, such as binary black hole systems, micro-quasars, active galactic nuclei, and gamma-ray…
Design and tests of the hard X-ray polarimeter X-Calibur
M. Beilicke, M. G. Baring, S. Barthelmy +17
X-ray polarimetry promises to give qualitatively new information about high-energy astrophysical sources, such as binary black hole systems, micro-quasars, active galactic nuclei,…
Flight Performance of an advanced CZT Imaging Detector in a Balloon-borne Wide-Field Hard X-ray Telescope - ProtoEXIST1
J. Hong, B. Allen, J. Grindlay +6
We successfully carried out the first high-altitude balloon flight of a wide-field hard X-ray coded-aperture telescope ProtoEXIST1, which was launched from the Columbia Scientific…
TeV and Multi-wavelength Observations of Mrk 421 in 2006-2008
V. A. Acciari, E. Aliu, T. Arlen +103
We report on TeV gamma-ray observations of the blazar Mrk 421 (redshift of 0.031) with the VERITAS observatory and the Whipple 10m Cherenkov telescope. The excellent sensitivity of…
The Proposed High Energy Telescope (HET) for EXIST
J. Hong, J. Grindlay, B. Allen +10
The hard X-ray sky now being studied by INTEGRAL and Swift and soon by NuSTAR is rich with energetic phenomena and highly variable non-thermal phenomena on a broad range of timesca…
