The eROSITA X-ray telescope on SRG
P. Predehl, R. Andritschke, V. Arefiev +90
eROSITA (extended ROentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) is the primary instrument on the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission, which was successfully launched on July 1…
Line Spread Functions of Blazed Off-Plane Gratings Operated in the Littrow Mounting
Casey T. DeRoo, Randall L. McEntaffer, Drew M. Miles +13
Future soft X-ray (10 - 50 Angstrom) spectroscopy missions require higher effective areas and resolutions to perform critical science that cannot be done by instruments on current…
Profile reconstruction of grazing-incidence X-ray mirrors from intra-focal X-ray full imaging
D. Spiga, S. Basso, M. Bavdaz +11
The optics of a number of future X-ray telescopes will have very long focal lengths (10 - 20 m), and will consist of a number of nested/stacked thin, grazing-incidence mirrors. The…
Performance Testing of a Novel Off-plane Reflection Grating and Silicon Pore Optic Spectrograph at PANTER
Hannah Marlowe, Randall L. McEntaffer, Ryan Allured +12
An X-ray spectrograph consisting of radially ruled off-plane reflection gratings and silicon pore optics was tested at the Max Planck Institute for extraterrestrial Physics PANTER…
The imaging properties of the Gas Pixel Detector as a focal plane polarimeter
S. Fabiani, E. Costa, E. Del Monte +19
X-rays are particularly suited to probe the physics of extreme objects. However, despite the enormous improvements of X-ray Astronomy in imaging, spectroscopy and timing, polarimet…
Re-testing the JET-X Flight Module No. 2 at the PANTER facility
Daniele Spiga, Gianpiero Tagliaferri, Paolo Soffitta +19
The Joint European X-ray Telescope (JET-X) was the core instrument of the Russian Spectrum-X-gamma space observatory. It consisted of two identical soft X-ray (0.3 - 10 keV) telesc…
