Insight-HXMT on-orbit thermal control status and thermal deformation impact analysis
Aimei Zhang, Yifan Zhang, Jinyuan Liao +23
Purpose: The Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope is China's first X-ray astronomy satellite launched on June 15th, 2017, dubbed Insight-HXMT. Active and passive thermal control measure…
Insight-HXMT Measurements of the Diffuse X-ray Background
Rui Huang, Wei Cui, Jin-Yuan Liao +8
We present an X-ray spectrum of the diffuse X-ray background (DXRB) between 1.5 and 120 keV, as measured with the Low-Energy Detector (LE) and the High-Energy Detector (HE) aboard…
A spectral-timing study of the inner flow geometry in MAXI J1535--571 with -HXMT and NICER
Wei Yu, Qing-Cui Bu, He-Xin Liu +48
We have performed a spectral-timing analysis on the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1535--571 during its 2017 outburst, with the aim of exploring the evolution of the inner accretion…
Insight-HXMT and GECAM-C observations of the brightest-of-all-time GRB 221009A
Zheng-Hua An, S. Antier, Xing-Zi Bi +174
GRB 221009A is the brightest gamma-ray burst ever detected since the discovery of this kind of energetic explosions. However, an accurate measurement of the prompt emission propert…
The Long-term Monitoring Results of Insight-HXMT in the First 4 Yr Galactic Plane Scanning Survey
Chen Wang, Jin-Yuan Liao, Ju Guan +7
The first X-ray source catalog of Insight-HXMT Galactic Plane (|b|<10deg) Scanning Survey (GPSS) is presented based on the data accumulated from June 2017 to August 2021. The 4 yr…
In-orbit Performance of ME onboard Insight-HXMT in the first 5 years
Ying Tan, Xuelei Cao, Weichun Jiang +16
Introduction: The Medium Energy X-ray telescope (ME) is a collimated X-ray telescope onboard the Insight hard X-ray modulation telescope (Insight-HXMT) satellite. It has 1728 Si-PI…
Five-year in-orbit background of Insight-HXMT
Jin-Yuan Liao, Shu Zhang, Juan Zhang +24
Purpose: We present the five-year in-orbit background evolution of Insight-HXMT since the launch, as well as the effects of the background model in data analysis. Methods: The back…
