Geant4 simulation of the residual background in the ATHENA Wide Field Imager from protons deflected by the Charged Particle Diverter
Gábor Galgóczi, Jean-Paul Breuer, Valentina Fioretti +11
X-ray telescopes opened up a new window into the high-energy universe. However, the last generation of these telescopes encountered an unexpected problem: their optics focused not…
Athena charged particle diverter simulations: effects of micro-roughness on proton scattering using Geant4
Jean-Paul Breuer, Gábor Galgóczi, Valentina Fioretti +12
The last generation of X-ray focusing telescopes operating outside the Earth's radiation belt discovered that optics were able to focus not only astrophysical X-ray photons, but al…
First light of BEaTriX, the new testing facility for the modular X-ray optics of the ATHENA mission
S. Basso, B. Salmaso, D. Spiga +35
The Beam Expander Testing X-ray facility (BEaTriX) is a unique X-ray apparatus now operated at the Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF), Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera (OAB)…
Silicon Pore Optics
Nicolas M. Barrière, Marcos Bavdaz, Maximilien J. Collon +4
Silicon Pore Optics (SPO) uses commercially available monocrystalline double-sided super-polished silicon wafers as a basis to produce mirrors that form lightweight high-resolution…
