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…
Revolutionary Solar System Science Enabled by the Line Emission Mapper X-ray Probe
William R. Dunn, Dimitra Koutroumpa, Jennifer A. Carter +27
The Line Emission Mapper's (LEM's) exquisite spectral resolution and effective area will open new research domains in Astrophysics, Planetary Science and Heliophysics. LEM will pro…
Eigenvalue Method for NEI Unit in FLASH Code
Gao-Yuan Zhang, Adam Foster, Randall Smith
We describe an improved nonequilibrium ionization (NEI) method that we have developed as an optional module for the FLASH magnetohydrodynamic simulation code. The method employs an…
SNR 1E 0102.2-7219 as an X-ray Calibration Standard in the 0.5-1.0 keV Bandpass and Its Application to the CCD Instruments aboard Chandra, Suzaku, Swift and XMM-Newton
Paul P. Plucinsky, Andrew P. Beardmore, Adam Foster +4
We desire a simple comparison of the absolute effective areas of the current generation of CCD instruments onboard the following observatories: Chandra ACIS-S3, XMM-Newton (EPIC-MO…
The ASTRO-H X-ray Astronomy Satellite
Tadayuki Takahashi, Kazuhisa Mitsuda, Richard Kelley +250
The joint JAXA/NASA ASTRO-H mission is the sixth in a series of highly successful X-ray missions developed by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS), with a planne…
Simulating X-ray Observations with Python
John A. ZuHone, Veronica Biffi, Eric J. Hallman +3
X-ray astronomy is an important tool in the astrophysicist's toolkit to investigate high-energy astrophysical phenomena. Theoretical numerical simulations of astrophysical sources…
