EXPO: a quantum leap in fast, wide-band X-ray polarimetry for astrophysics

Paolo Soffitta, Sebastien Guillot, Ian Hutchinson +137

The Enhanced X-ray Polarimetry Observatory (EXPO) is a mission concept proposed to ESA as an M8 candidate, with a prospective launch in 2041. Building on the scientific success of…

The CUSP CubeSat mission for space weather multi-physics analysis, design, and testing

Giovanni Lombardi, Riccardo Di Spirito, Sergio Fabiani +48

The CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) mission aims to measure the linear polarization of solar flares in the hard X-ray band by means of a Compton scattering polarimeter. CUSP is a…

An Ultra-Short Period Super-Earth and a Sub-Neptune Orbiting the K dwarf TOI-4311

Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Thomas G. Wilson, Andrew Collier Cameron +95

We report the discovery and characterisation of the multi-planetary system around TOI-4311, a K dwarf kinematically between the Galactic thick disk and Hercules stream. TOI-4311 ho…

Spectral performance of single-channel plastic and GAGG scintillator bars of the CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP)

Nicolas De Angelis, Abhay Kumar, Sergio Fabiani +45

Our Sun is the closest X-ray astrophysical source to Earth. As such, it makes a formidable case study to better understand astrophysical processes. Solar flares are in particular v…
