In-flight Timing Calibration of the Follow-up X-Ray Telescope on Board the Einstein Probe
Juan Zhang, Xiaofan Zhao, Dawei Han +18
After the launch of Einstein Probe (EP), pulsars are observed to calibrate the timing system of the onboard Follow-up X-ray Telescope (FXT) by measuring the times of arrival (TOAs)…
Insight-HXMT on-orbit thermal control status and thermal deformation impact analysis
Aimei Zhang, Yifan Zhang, Jinyuan Liao +23
Purpose: The Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope is China's first X-ray astronomy satellite launched on June 15th, 2017, dubbed Insight-HXMT. Active and passive thermal control measure…
Pulsar and Magnetar Navigation with Fermi/GBM and GECAM
Xi-Hong Luo, Shuo Xiao, Shi-Jie Zheng +29
The determination of the absolute and relative position of a spacecraft is critical for its operation, observations, data analysis, scientific studies, as well as deep space explor…
Five-year in-orbit background of Insight-HXMT
Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang, Juan Zhang +24
Purpose: We present the five-year in-orbit background evolution of Insight-HXMT since the launch, as well as the effects of the background model in data analysis. Methods: The back…
In-orbit performance of HE onboard Insight-HXMT in the first 5 years
Xu-Fang Li, Cong-Zhan Liu, Yi-Fei Zhang +10
Purpose: The High-Energy X-ray telescope (HE), one of the three main payloads of the \textit{Insight}-HXMT mission, is composed of eighteen NaI(Tl)/CsI(Na) phoswich detectors, wher…
GECAM Localization of High Energy Transients and the Systematic Error
Yi Zhao, Wang-Chen Xue, Shao-Lin Xiong +63
Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is a pair of microsatellites (i.e. GECAM-A and GECAM-B) dedicated to monitoring gamma-ray transie…
Neutral Atmospheric Density Measurement Using Insight-HXMT Data by Earth Occultation Technique
Wang-Chen Xue, Xiao-Bo Li, Shao-Lin Xiong +12
The Earth occultation technique has broad applications in both astronomy and atmospheric density measurements. We construct the background model during the occultation of the Crab…
Background Model for the High-Energy Telescope of Insight-HXMT
Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang, Xue-Feng Lu +20
Accurate background estimation is essential for spectral and temporal analysis in astrophysics. In this work, we construct the in-orbit background model for the High-Energy Telesco…
Background Model for the Low-Energy Telescope of Insight-HXMT
Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang, Yong Chen +16
With more than 150 blank sky observations at high Galactic latitude, we make a systematic study to the background of the Low Energy Telescope (LE) of the Hard X-ray Modulation Tele…
The Background Model of the Medium Energy X-ray telescope of Insight-HXMT
Cheng-Cheng Guo, Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang +26
The Medium Energy X-ray Telescope (ME) is one of the main payloads of the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (dubbed as Insight-HXMT). The background of Insight-HXMT/ME is mainly caus…
