New results on focusing of gamma-rays with Laue lenses

F. Ferrari, F. Frontera, G. Loffredo +13

We report on new results on the development activity of broad band Laue lenses for hard X-/gamma-ray astronomy (70/100-600 keV). After the development of a first prototype, whose p…

Focusing of gamma-rays with Laue lenses: first results

F. Frontera, G. Loffredo, A. Pisa +12

We report on the first results obtained from our development project of focusing gamma-rays (60 keV) by using Laue lenses. The first lens prototype model has been assembled and…

Gamma-ray lens development status for a European Gamma-Ray Imager

F. Frontera, A. Pisa, V. Carassiti +11

A breakthrough in the sensitivity level of the hard X-/gamma-ray telescopes, which today are based on detectors that view the sky through (or not) coded masks, is expected when foc…

Exploring the Hard X-/soft gamma-ray Continuum Spectra with Laue Lenses

F. Frontera, A. Pisa, P. De Chiara +17

The history of X-ray astronomy has shown that any advancement in our knowledge of the X-ray sky is strictly related to an increase in instrument sensitivity. At energies above 60 k…
