Development status of a Laue lens project for gamma-ray astronomy
F. Frontera, G. Loffredo, A. Pisa +17
We report the status of the HAXTEL project, devoted to perform a design study and the development of a Laue lens prototype. After a summary of the major results of the design study…
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…
Laue Lens Development for Hard X-rays (>60 keV)
D. Pellicciotta, F. Frontera, G. Loffredo +7
Results of reflectivity measurements of mosaic crystal samples of Cu (111) are reported. These tests were performed in the context of a feasibility study of a hard X-ray focusing t…
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…
