First Flight Performance of the Micro-X Microcalorimeter X-Ray Sounding Rocket
Joseph S. Adams, Robert Baker, Simon R. Bandler +28
The flight of the Micro-X sounding rocket on July 22, 2018 marked the first operation of Transition-Edge Sensors and their SQUID readouts in space. The instrument combines the micr…
Searching for keV Sterile Neutrino Dark Matter with X-ray Microcalorimeter Sounding Rockets
Enectali Figueroa-Feliciano, Adam J. Anderson, Daniel Castro +9
High-resolution X-ray spectrometers onboard suborbital sounding rockets can search for dark matter candidates that produce X-ray lines, such as decaying keV-scale sterile neutrinos…
Vibration Isolation Design for the Micro-X Rocket Payload
Sarah N. T. Heine, Enectali Figueroa-Feliciano, John M. Rutherford +4
Micro-X is a NASA-funded, sounding rocket-borne X-ray imaging spectrometer that will allow high precision measurements of velocity structure, ionization state and elemental composi…
A Decade-Baseline Study of the Plasma States of Ejecta Knots in Cassiopeia A
John Rutherford, Daniel Dewey, Enectali Figueroa-Feliciano +4
We present the analysis of 21 bright X-ray knots in the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant from observations spanning 10 yr. We performed a comprehensive set of measurements to reveal…
