Imaging Analysis of the Hard X-ray Telescope ProtoEXIST2 and New Techniques for High Resolution Coded Aperture Telescopes
Jaesub Hong, Branden Allen, Jonathan Grindlay +1
Wide-field (> 100 deg) hard X-ray coded-aperture telescopes with high angular resolution (< 2') will enable a wide range of time domain astrophysics. For instance, transient so…
Tiled Array of Pixelated CZT Imaging Detectors for ProtoEXIST2 and MIRAX-HXI
Jaesub Hong, Branden Allen, Jonathan Grindlay +7
We have assembled a tiled array (220 cm2) of fine pixel (0.6 mm) imaging CZT detectors for a balloon borne wide-field hard X-ray telescope, ProtoEXIST2. ProtoEXIST2 is a prototype…
The REgolith X-Ray Imaging Spectrometer (REXIS) for OSIRIS-REx: Identifying Regional Elemental Enrichment on Asteroids
Branden Allen, Jonathan Grindlay, Jaesub Hong +10
The OSIRIS-REx Mission was selected under the NASA New Frontiers program and is scheduled for launch in September of 2016 for a rendezvous with, and collection of a sample from the…
The High Resolution X-Ray Imaging Detector Planes for the MIRAX Mission
Barbara H. G. Rodrigues, Jonathan E. Grindlay, Branden Allen +5
The MIRAX X-ray observatory, the first Brazilian-led astrophysics space mission, is designed to perform an unprecedented wide-field, wide-band hard X-ray (5-200 keV) survey of Gala…
ProtoEXIST: Advanced Prototype CZT Coded Aperture Telescopes for EXIST
Branden Allen, Jaesub Hong, Josh Grindlay +9
{\it ProtoEXIST1} is a pathfinder for the {\it EXIST-HET}, a coded aperture hard X-ray telescope with a 4.5 m CZT detector plane a 9070 degree field of view to be flown…
The High Energy Telescope on EXIST
J. Hong, J. E. Grindlay, B. Allen +4
The Energetic X-ray Imaging Survey Telescope (EXIST) is a proposed next generation multi-wavelength survey mission. The primary instrument is a High Energy telescope (HET) that con…
