Exploring impulsive solar magnetic energy release and particle acceleration with focused hard X-ray imaging spectroscopy

Steven Christe, Samuel Krucker, Lindsay Glesener +37

How impulsive magnetic energy release leads to solar eruptions and how those eruptions are energized and evolve are vital unsolved problems in Heliophysics. The standard model for…

Demonstration of a novel focusing small-angle neutron scattering instrument equipped with axisymmetric mirrors

Dazhi Liu, Boris Khaykovich, Mikhail V. Gubarev +4

Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) is the most significant neutron technique in terms of impact on science and engineering. However, the basic concept of SANS facilities has not…

Demonstration of Achromatic Cold-Neutron Microscope Utilizing Axisymmetric Focusing Mirrors

D. Liu, D. Hussey, M. V. Gubarev +5

An achromatic cold-neutron microscope with magnification 4 is demonstrated. The image-forming optics is composed of nested coaxial mirrors of full figures of revolution, so-called…

Axisymmetric Grazing-Incidence Focusing Optics for Small-Angle Neutron Scattering

Dazhi Liu, Mikhail V. Gubarev, Giacomo Resta +3

We propose and design novel axisymmetric focusing mirrors, known as Wolter optics, for small-angle neutron scattering instruments. Ray-tracing simulations show that using the mirro…

From x-ray telescopes to neutron scattering: using axisymmetric mirrors to focus a neutron beam

B. Khaykovich, M. V. Gubarev, Y. Bagdasarova +2

We demonstrate neutron beam focusing by axisymmetric mirror systems based on a pair of mirrors consisting of a confocal ellipsoid and hyperboloid. Such a system, known as a Wolter…

High-resolution x-ray telescopes

S. L. O'Dell, R. J. Brissenden, W. N. Davis +21

High-energy astrophysics is a relatively young scientific field, made possible by space-borne telescopes. During the half-century history of x-ray astronomy, the sensitivity of foc…
