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…
The Instrument of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
Paolo Soffitta, Luca Baldini, Ronaldo Bellazzini +78
While X-ray Spectroscopy, Timing and Imaging have improved verymuch since 1962, when the first astronomical non-solar source was discovered, especially with the launch of Newton/X-…
Design, Construction, and Test of the Gas Pixel Detectors for the IXPE Mission
L. Baldini, M. Barbanera, R. Bellazzini +91
Due to be launched in late 2021, the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer mission designed to perform polarization measurements in the 2-8 keV band, c…
Citizen COmputing for Pulsar Searches: CICLOPS
Matteo Bachetti, Maura Pilia, Stefano Curatti +7
Most periodicity search algorithms used in pulsar astronomy today are highly efficient and take advantage of multiple CPUs or GPUs. The bottlenecks are usually represented by the o…
Extending the and statistics to generic pulsed profiles
Matteo Bachetti, Maura Pilia, Daniela Huppenkothen +3
The search for astronomical pulsed signals within noisy data, in the radio band, is usually performed through an initial Fourier analysis to find "candidate" frequencies and then r…
Timing Calibration of the NuSTAR X-ray Telescope
Matteo Bachetti, Craig B. Markwardt, Brian W. Grefenstette +13
The Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) mission is the first focusing X-ray telescope in the hard X-ray (3-79 keV) band. Among the phenomena that can be studied in this…
