Ion Irradiation of GridPix Detector at Bonn Isochronous Cyclotron
Vladislavs Plesanovs, Hemanth Manikantan, Dennis Sauerland +6
The potential successor of the IXPE --- the EXPO or Enhanced X-ray Polarimetry Observatory will have a new X-ray polarimeter based on GridPix technology. To certify this detector f…
In orbit background for hard X-ray CubeSat polarimeters: case study of the CUSP mission in low-earth orbit
Abhay Kumar, Giovanni Lombardi, Riccardo Campana +45
The CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) project aims to measure the linear polarization of solar flares in the 25 - 100 keV hard X-ray band using a Compton scattering polarimeter. CUS…
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…
Peering through the dip: IXPE unveils the extended scattering environment of GX 13+1
Alessandro Di Marco, Fabio La Monaca, Luigi Stella +17
Neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries feature complex accretion geometries, often including an accretion disk corona or disk winds. Here, a study of the highly inclined dipping sour…
Compton Polarimeter Prototype for the CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) mission
Nicolas De Angelis, Andrea Alimenti, Riccardo Campana +41
The space-based CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) mission aims to measure the linear polarization of solar flares in the hard X-ray band (25-100 keV) by means of a dual-phase Compto…
Design and performance of the coded mask for the Lunar Electromagnetic Monitor in X-rays (LEM-X)
Yuri Evangelista, Alessio Nuti, Francesco Ceraudo +16
The Lunar Electromagnetic Monitor in X-rays (LEM-X) is a proposed wide-field X-ray observatory designed for deployment on the Moon's surface. Its primary scientific goal is to enha…
Magnetic-field Order in the Southwestern Rim of RCW 86 Constrained Using X-Ray Polarimetry
Stefano Silvestri, Dmitry Prokhorov, Jacco Vink +97
RCW 86 is a supernova remnant whose origin has recently been linked to an off-center explosion within a cavity created by its progenitor star. In the southwestern region, the forwa…
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…
