Upgrading the high contrast imaging facility SPHERE: science drivers and instrument choices
A. Boccaletti, G. Chauvin, F. Wildi +71
SPHERE+ is a proposed upgrade of the SPHERE instrument at the VLT, which is intended to boost the current performances of detection and characterization for exoplanets and disks. S…
Ariel: Enabling planetary science across light-years
Giovanna Tinetti, Paul Eccleston, Carole Haswell +313
Ariel, the Atmospheric Remote-sensing Infrared Exoplanet Large-survey, was adopted as the fourth medium-class mission in ESA's Cosmic Vision programme to be launched in 2029. Durin…
Monte Carlo simulations of Gamma-ray space telescopes: a BoGEMMS multi-purpose application
Valentina Fioretti, Andrea Bulgarelli, Marco Tavani +5
After the development of a BoGEMMS (Bologna Geant4 Multi-Mission Simulator) template for the back- ground study of X-ray telescopes, a new extension is built for the simulation of…
The THESEUS space mission concept: science case, design and expected performances
L. Amati, P. O'Brien, D. Goetz +208
THESEUS is a space mission concept aimed at exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts for investigating the early Universe and at providing a substantial advancement of multi-messenger and time-…
Prospects for CTA observations of the young SNR RX J1713.7-3946
The CTA Consortium, :, F. Acero +381
We perform simulations for future Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) observations of RX~J1713.73946, a young supernova remnant (SNR) and one of the brightest sources ever discovere…
Monte Carlo simulations of soft proton flares: testing the physics with XMM-Newton
Valentina Fioretti, Andrea Bulgarelli, Giuseppe Malaguti +2
Low energy protons (<100-300 keV) in the Van Allen belt and the outer regions can enter the field of view of X-ray focusing telescopes, interact with the Wolter-I optics, and reach…
