Equalizing the Pixel Response of the Imaging Photoelectric Polarimeter On-Board the IXPE Mission
John Rankin, Fabio Muleri, Alessandro Di Marco +18
The Gas Pixel Detector is a gas detector, sensitive to the polarization of X-rays, currently flying on-board IXPE - the first observatory dedicated to X-ray polarimetry. It detects…
Calibration of the IXPE focal plane X-ray polarimeters to polarized radiation
Alessandro Di Marco, Sergio Fabiani, Fabio La Monaca +80
IXPE (Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer) is a NASA Small Explorer mission -- in partnership with the Italian Space Agency (ASI) -- dedicated to X-ray polarimetry in the 2--8 keV e…
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 Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE): Pre-Launch
Martin C. Weisskopf, Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini +155
Scheduled to launch in late 2021, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer Mission in collaboration with the Italian Space Agency (ASI). The mission w…
An algorithm to calibrate and correct the response to unpolarized radiation of the X-ray polarimeter on board IXPE
John Rankin, Fabio Muleri, Allyn F. Tennant +18
The Gas Pixel Detector is an X-ray polarimeter to fly on-board IXPE and other missions. To correctly measure the source polarization, the response of IXPE's GPDs to unpolarized rad…
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…
