HX-POL - A Balloon-Borne Hard X-Ray Polarimeter
H. Krawczynski, A. Garson, Q. Li +10
We report on the design and estimated performance of a balloon-borne hard X-ray polarimeter called HX-POL. The experiment uses a combination of Si and Cadmium Zinc Telluride detect…
Exploring the Small Magellanic Cloud to the Faintest X-ray Fluxes: Source Catalog, Timing and Spectral Analysis
Silas Laycock, Andreas Zezas, Jaesub Hong +2
We present the results of a pair of 100 ksec Chandra observations in the Small Magellanic Cloud to survey high mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs), stars and LMXBs/CVs down to Lx = 4.3 x 1…
Initial Optical Results for the ChaMPlane Survey
Ping Zhao, Jonathan Grindlay, Peter Edmonds +5
We provide a brief description of the optical survey being conducted under the NOAO Long Term Surveys program in support of the Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey (se…
Chandra Multi-wavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey: Design and Initial Results
Jonathan Grindlay, Ping Zhao, JaeSub Hong +9
The Chandra Multiwavength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey of the galactic plane incorporates serendipitous sources from selected Chandra pointings in or near the galactic plane (b < 12deg…
Proposed Next Generation GRB Mission: EXIST
J. Grindlay, N. Gehrels, F. Harrison +7
A next generation Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) mission to follow the upcoming Swift mission is described. The proposed Energetic X-ray Imaging Survey Telescope, EXIST, would yield the lim…
Photon Folding for Imaging in Non-Focusing Telescopes
JaeSub Hong
We present a new technique - photon folding - for imaging in non-focusing telescopes. Motivated by the epoch-folding method in timing analysis, the photon folding technique directl…
