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…

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…
