Imaging performance above 150 keV of the wide field monitor on board the ASTENA concept mission

Lisa Ferro, Leo Cavazzini, Miguel Moita +10

A new detection system for X-/Gamma-ray broad energy passband detectors for astronomy has been developed. This system is based on Silicon Drift Detectors (SDDs) coupled with scinti…

Measurement of the non-linearity in the gamma-ray response of the GAGG:Ce inorganic scintillator

R. Campana, C. Evola, C. Labanti +6

A characteristic of every inorganic scintillator crystal is its light yield, i.e., the amount of emitted scintillation photons per unit of energy deposited in the crystal. Light yi…

CdTe Spectroscopic-Imager Measurements with Bent Crystals for Broad Band Laue Lenses

N. Auricchio, L. Ferro, J. B. Stephen +15

In astrophysics, several key questions in the hard X soft Gamma-ray range (above 100 keV) require sensitivity and angular resolution that are hardly achievable with current technol…
