X-ray grating spectroscopy as a mission enhancement

Hans Moritz Guenther, Ehud Behar, Joel N. Bregman +27

We propose to add instruments to any potential future X-ray mission with focussing optics that is considered in NASA's ASTRA framework. Such an instrument is a necessity to study A…

Flux Contribution and Geometry of the Charge Exchange Emission in the Starburst Galaxy M82

Hiromichi Okon, Randall K. Smith, Adrien picquenot +1

Recent X-ray studies of starburst galaxies have found that Charge eXchange (CX) commonly occurs between the outflowing hot plasma and cold gas, possibly from swept-up clouds. Howev…

Experimental Inference of Neutral and Impurity Transport in Alcator C-Mod Using High-Resolution X-Ray and Ultra-Violet Spectra

F. Sciortino, N. T. Howard, R. Reksoatmodjo +10

We present experimental inferences of cross-field impurity transport coefficients for Alcator C-Mod plasmas using a novel forward model for the entire Ca K-alpha spectrum, includin…

Spectral Implications of Atomic Uncertainties in Optically-thin Hot Plasmas

Keri Heuer, Adam R. Foster, Randall Smith

Two new high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy missions, XRISM and Athena, will observe deeper and with higher X-ray resolution than ever before possible. Interpreting these new X-ray…
