Soft proton experiments supporting the development of astronomical X-ray instrumentation
S. J. Diebold, B. Heß, F. Pfeifle +11
Orbital soft protons can severely degrade the performance of astronomical X-ray observatories. On the one hand, they may cause permanent radiation damage to X-ray detectors; on the…
Microchannel plate detector development for ultraviolet astronomy
S. Diebold, J. Barnstedt, J. Bayer +8
Observational data from the UV wavelength range is crucial to solve several astrophysical puzzles. Consequently, there are a number of upcoming UV missions from CubeSats up to the…
Quality assurance of actuators for the Medium-Sized Telescopes of the Cherenkov Telescope Array
Heiko Salzmann, Jürgen Dick, Sebastian Diebold +4
The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is a future ground-based observatory for gamma-ray astronomy providing unparalleled sensitivity in the energy range from 20 GeV up to 300 TeV. C…
Galactic transient sources with the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory
Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory Consortium
A wide variety of Galactic sources show transient emission at soft and hard X-ray energies: low- and high-mass X-ray binaries containing compact objects, isolated neutron stars exh…
Dark Matter Line Searches with the Cherenkov Telescope Array
S. Abe, J. Abhir, A. Abhishek +562
Monochromatic gamma-ray signals constitute a potential smoking gun signature for annihilating or decaying dark matter particles that could relatively easily be distinguished from a…
Using SRG/eROSITA to estimate soft proton fluxes at the ATHENA detectors
E. Perinati, M. Freyberg, M. C. H. Yeung +5
Context: Environmental soft protons have affected the performance of the X-ray detectors on board Chandra and XMM-Newton, and they pose a threat for future high energy astrophysics…
