High-statistics simulations of NewAthena WFI background using Geant4
Matthew K. Heine, Catherine E. Grant, Marshall W. Bautz +14
The paper presents high‑statistics Geant4 simulations of the background caused by cosmic‑ray interactions in the Wide Field Imager of ESA's NewAthena X‑ray observatory, using both…
Resolving the temporal evolution of M87 jet with -arcsec Chandra observations
Camille Poitras, Gerrit Schellenberger, Ralph Kraft +3
We present a 13-year Chandra/HRC-I study of the M87 jet, using point-spread-function deconvolution to achieve unprecedented sub-arcsecond X-ray resolution of its kiloparsec-scale s…
The Cluster Evolutionary Reference Ensemble at Low- (CEREAL) Sample of Galaxy Clusters I: X-ray Morphological Properties and Demographics
Laurel White, Michael McDonald, Steven W. Allen +8
With rapid improvements in the assembly of large samples of galaxy clusters, we are approaching the ability to study clusters at . Evolutionary studies comparing these d…
Using the XMM-Newton small window mode to investigate systematic uncertainties in the particle background of X-ray charge-coupled device detectors
Gerrit Schellenberger, Ralph Kraft, Paul Nulsen +17
The level and uncertainty of the particle induced background in CCD detectors plays a crucial role for future X-ray instruments, such as the Wide Field Imager (WFI) onboard Athena.…
