The Modular X- and Gamma-Ray Sensor (MXGS)of the ASIM Payload on the International Space Station
Nikolai Østgaard, Jan E. Balling, Thomas Bjørnsen +32
The Modular X- and Gamma-ray Sensor (MXGS) is an imaging and spectral X- and Gamma-ray instrument mounted on the starboard side of the Columbus module on the International Space St…
Testing and Performance of UFFO Burst Alert & Trigger Telescope
J. Ripa, M. B. Kim, J. Lee +26
The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory pathfinder (UFFO-p) is a new space mission dedicated to detect Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and rapidly follow their afterglows in order to provide earl…
XIPE: the X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer
Paolo Soffitta, Xavier Barcons, Ronaldo Bellazzini +96
X-ray polarimetry, sometimes alone, and sometimes coupled to spectral and temporal variability measurements and to imaging, allows a wealth of physical phenomena in astrophysics to…
On-Orbit Degradation of Solar Instruments
A. BenMoussa, S. Gissot, U. Schühle +38
We present the lessons learned about the degradation observed in several space solar missions, based on contributions at the Workshop about On-Orbit Degradation of Solar and Space…
A next generation Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO-100) for IR/optical observations of the rise phase of gamma-ray bursts
B. Grossan, I. H. Park, S. Ahmad +39
The Swift Gamma-ray Burst (GRB) observatory responds to GRB triggers with optical observations in ~ 100 s, but cannot respond faster than ~ 60 s. While some ground-based telescopes…
Design and Fabrication of Detector Module for UFFO Burst Alert & Trigger Telescope
A. Jung, S. Ahmad, K. -B. Ahn +39
The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO) pathfinder is a space mission devoted to the measurement of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), especially their early light curves which will give cru…
The UFFO (Ultra Fast Flash Observatory) Pathfinder: Science and Mission
P. Chen, S. Ahmad, K. Ahn +39
Hundreds of gamma-ray burst (GRB) optical light curves have been measured since the discovery of optical afterglows. However, even after nearly 7 years of operation of the Swift Ob…
