Mitigating the effects of particle background on the Athena Wide-Field Imager
Eric D. Miller, Catherine E. Grant, Marshall W. Bautz +16
The Wide Field Imager (WFI) flying on Athena will usher in the next era of studying the hot and energetic Universe. WFI observations of faint, diffuse sources will be limited by un…
Reducing the Athena WFI charged particle background: Results from Geant4 simulations
Catherine E. Grant, Eric D. Miller, Marshall W. Bautz +9
One of the science goals of the Wide Field Imager (WFI) on ESA's Athena X-ray observatory is to map hot gas structures in the universe, such as clusters and groups of galaxies and…
Importance of charge capture in inter-phase regions during readout of charge-coupled devices
Jesper Skottfelt, David J. Hall, Ben Dryer +3
The current understanding of charge transfer dynamics in Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) is that charge is moved so quickly from one phase to the next in a clocking sequence and with…
Comparing simulations and test data of a radiation damaged charge-couple device for the Euclid mission
Jesper Skottfelt, David Hall, Jason Gow +3
The VIS instrument on board the Euclid mission is a weak-lensing experiment that depends on very precise shape measurements of distant galaxies obtained by a large CCD array. Due t…
