A weighted analysis to improve the X-ray polarization sensitivity of IXPE
Alessandro Di Marco, Enrico Costa, Fabio Muleri +29
IXPE is a Small Explorer mission that was launched at the end of 2021 to measure the polarization of X-ray emission from tens of astronomical sources. Its focal plane detectors are…
The IXPE Instrument Calibration Equipment
Fabio Muleri, Raffaele Piazzolla, Alessandro Di Marco +28
The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer is a mission dedicated to the measurement of X-ray polarization from tens of astrophysical sources belonging to different classes. Expected t…
Design, Construction, and Test of the Gas Pixel Detectors for the IXPE Mission
L. Baldini, M. Barbanera, R. Bellazzini +91
Due to be launched in late 2021, the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer mission designed to perform polarization measurements in the 2-8 keV band, c…
A Study of background for IXPE
Fei Xie, Riccardo Ferrazzoli, Paolo Soffitta +4
Focal plane X-ray polarimetry is intended for relatively bright sources with a negligible impact of background. However this might not be always possible for IXPE (Imaging X-ray Po…
