EXPO: a quantum leap in fast, wide-band X-ray polarimetry for astrophysics
Paolo Soffitta, Sebastien Guillot, Ian Hutchinson +137
The Enhanced X-ray Polarimetry Observatory (EXPO) is a mission concept proposed to ESA as an M8 candidate, with a prospective launch in 2041. Building on the scientific success of…
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…
Compton Polarimeter Prototype for the CUbesat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) mission
Nicolas De Angelis, Andrea Alimenti, Riccardo Campana +41
The paper presents the design, construction, and laboratory testing of a flight‑representative Compton polarimeter prototype for the CubeSat Solar Polarimeter (CUSP) mission, which…
Design and preliminary performance study of the broad-band spectrometer detector for POLAR-2
Jian-Chao Sun, Jiang He, Shuang-Nan Zhang +46
POLAR-2, the successor of the POLAR experiment aboard China's Tiangong-2 space lab, is set to be deployed on the China Space Station. The POLAR-2 mission aims to conducting high-pr…
POLAR-2 -- Latest Developments of the Next Generation GRB Polarimeter
Johannes Hulsman, Philipp Azzarello, Joerg Bayer +20
Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) are among the most energetic events in the Universe. Despite over 50 years of research and measurements their prompt emission remains poorly understood, wit…
