GRAVITAS : General Relativistic Astrophysics VIa Timing And Spectroscopy: An ESA M3 mission proposal
Kirpal Nandra, Didier Barret, Andy Fabian +8
GRAVITAS is an X-ray observatory, designed and optimised to address the ESA Cosmic Vision theme of "Matter under extreme conditions". It was submitted as a response to the call for…
eROSITA on SRG: a X-ray all-sky survey mission
N. Cappelluti, P. Predehl, H. Boehringer +23
eROSITA (extended ROentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) is the core instrument on the Russian Spektrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission which is scheduled for launch in late…
SIMBOL-X, a formation flying-mission for hard X-ray astrophysics
P. Ferrando, A. Goldwurm, P. Laurent +13
SIMBOL-X is a hard X-ray mission, operating in the ~ 0.5-70 keV range, which is proposed by a consortium of European laboratories in response to the 2004 call for ideas of CNES for…
Improving XMM-Newton EPIC pn data at low energies: method and application to the Vela SNR
Konrad Dennerl, Bernd Aschenbach, Ulrich G. Briel +13
High quantum efficiency over a broad spectral range is one of the main properties of the EPIC pn camera on-board XMM-Newton. The quantum efficiency rises from ~75% at 0.2 keV to ~1…
XTRA: The fast X-ray timing detector on XEUS
Didier Barret
The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) has demonstrated that the dynamical variation of the X-ray emission from accreting neutron stars and stellar mass black holes is a powerful p…
SIMBOL-X : a new generation hard X-ray telescope
P. Ferrando, M. Arnaud, B. Cordier +17
SIMBOL-X is a hard X-ray mission, operating in the 0.5-70 keV range, which is proposed by a consortium of European laboratories for a launch around 2010. Relying on two spacecraft…
