Simbol-X: A Formation Flight Mission with an Unprecedented Imaging Capability in the 0.5-80 Kev Energy Band
Gianpiero Tagliaferri, Philippe Ferrando, Jean-Michel Le Duigou +8
The discovery of X-ray emission from cosmic sources in the 1960s has opened a new powerful observing window on the Universe. In fact, the exploration of the X-ray sky during the 70…
Estimation of X-ray scattering impact in imaging degradation for the SIMBOL-X telescope
D. Spiga, G. Pareschi, R. Canestrari +1
The imaging performance of X-ray optics (expressed in terms of HEW, Half-Energy-Width) can be severely affected by X-ray scattering caused by the surface roughness of the mirrors.…
Science with Simbol-X
F. Fiore, M. Arnaud, U. Briel +20
Simbol-X is a French-Italian mission, with a participation of German laboratories, for X-ray astronomy in the wide 0.5-80 keV band. Taking advantage of emerging technology in mirro…
The reflecting surface of the MAGIC-II Telescope
D. Bastieri, J. Arnold, C. Baixeras +19
The MAGIC Collaboration is building a second telescope, MAGIC II, improving the design of the current MAGIC Telescope. MAGIC II is being built at 85 m of distance from MAGIC I, and…
An X-ray Galaxy Cluster Survey for Investigations of Dark Energy
Z. Haiman, S. Allen, N. Bahcall +34
The amount and nature of dark energy (DE) can be tightly constrained by measuring the spatial correlation features and evolution of a sample of ~ 100,000 galaxy clusters over the r…
Hard X-rays from Type II bursts of the Rapid Burster and its transition toward quiescence
N. Masetti, F. Frontera, L. Stella +10
We report on 4 BeppoSAX Target Of Opportunity observations of MXB 1730-335, the Rapid Burster (RB), made during the 1998 February-March outburst. In the first observation, approxim…
