In-flight energy calibration of the space-borne Compton polarimeter POLAR
Hualin Xiao, Wojtek Hajdas, Bobing Wu +39
POLAR is a compact wide-field space-borne detector for precise measurements of the linear polarisation of hard X-rays emitted by transient sources in the energy range from 50 keV t…
Design and construction of the POLAR detector
N. Produit, T. W. Bao, T. Batsch +35
The POLAR detector is a space based Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) polarimeter with a wide field of view, which covers almost half the sky. The instrument uses Compton scattering of gamma r…
Calibration of the Space-borne Compton Polarimeter POLAR flight model with 100% polarized X-ray beams
H. L. Xiao, W. Hajdas, P. Socha +32
POLAR is space-borne detector designed for a precise measurement of gamma-ray polarization of the prompt emissions of Gamma-Ray Bursts in the energy range 50 keV - 500 keV. POLAR i…
Gain factor and parameter settings optimization of the new gamma-ray burst polarimeter POLAR
X. F. Zhang, W. Hajdas, H. L. Xiao +38
As a space-borne detector POLAR is designed to conduct hard X-ray polarization measurements of gamma-ray bursts on the statistically significant sample of events and with an unprec…
