Design and construction of the POLAR detector
N. Produit, T. W. Bao, T. Batsch +35
The POLAR detector is a space based Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) polarimeter with a wide field of view, which covers almost half the sky. The instrument uses Compton scattering of gamma r…
Gain factor and parameter settings optimization of the new gamma-ray burst polarimeter POLAR
X. F. Zhang, W. Hajdas, H. L. Xiao +38
As a space-borne detector POLAR is designed to conduct hard X-ray polarization measurements of gamma-ray bursts on the statistically significant sample of events and with an unprec…
Precision measurement of the (e + e) flux in primary cosmic rays from 0.5 GeV to 1 TeV with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station
Manuela Vecchi
We present a precise measurement of the combined electron plus positron flux from 0.5 GeV to 1 TeV, based on the analysis of the data collected by the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer d…
Precision Measurement of the Proton Flux in Primary Cosmic Rays from 1 GV to 1.8 TV with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on the International Space Station
Cristina Consolandi
A precision measurement of the proton flux in primary cosmic rays with rigidity from 1 GV to 1.8 TV is presented based on 300 million events. The results show that the proton flux…
POLAR: Final Calibration and In-Flight Performance of a Dedicated GRB Polarimeter
M. Kole, T. W. Bao, T. Batsch +41
Gamma-ray polarimetry is a new powerful tool to study the processes responsible for the emission from astrophysical sources and the environments in which this emission takes place.…
Calibration of Gamma-ray Burst Polarimeter POLAR
H. L. Xiao, W. Hajdas, T. W. Bao +33
Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the strongest explosions in the universe which might be associated with creation of black holes. Magnetic field structure and burst dynamics may influen…
