High-precision CTE measurement of hybrid C/SiC composite for cryogenic space telescopes
K. Enya, N. Yamada, T. Imai +12
This paper presents highly precise measurements of thermal expansion of a "hybrid" carbon-fiber reinforced silicon carbide composite, HB-Cesic\textregistered - a trademark of ECM,…
Development of the analog ASIC for multi-channel readout X-ray CCD camera
Hiroshi Nakajima, Daisuke Matsuura, Toshihiro Idehara +7
We report on the performance of an analog application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) developed aiming for the front-end electronics of the X-ray CCDcamera system onboard the ne…
In Orbit Performance of the MAXI/SSC onboard the ISS
Hiroshi Tsunemi, Hiroshi Tomida, Haruyoshi Katayama +4
We report here the in orbit performance of the CCD camera (MAXI/SSC) onboard the International Space Station (ISS). It was commissioned in August, 2009. This is the first all-sky s…
Solid-state Slit Camera (SSC) on Board MAXI
Hiroshi Tomida, Hiroshi Tsunemi, Masashi Kimura +9
Solid-state Slit Camera (SSC) is an X-ray camera onboard the MAXI mission of the International Space Station. Two sets of SSC sensors view X-ray sky using charge-coupled devices (C…
The MAXI Mission on the ISS: Science and Instruments for Monitoring All Sky X-Ray Images
Masaru Matsuoka, Kazuyoshi Kawasaki, Shiro Ueno +29
The MAXI (Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image) mission is the first astronomical payload to be installed on the Japanese Experiment Module-Exposed Facility (JEM-EF) on the ISS. It is sc…
Reproducibility of Non-X-ray Background for the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer aboard Suzaku
Noriaki Tawa, Kiyoshi Hayashida, Masaaki Nagai +9
One of the advantages of the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer (XIS) system on board Suzaku is its low and stable non-X-ray background (NXB). In order to make the best use of this advanta…
