X-ray performance of critical-angle transmission grating prototypes for the Arcus mission

Ralf K. Heilmann, Alexander R. Bruccoleri, Vadim Burwitz +12

Arcus is a proposed soft x-ray grating spectrometer Explorer. It aims to explore cosmic feedback by mapping hot gases within and between galaxies and galaxy clusters and characteri…

A Small Satellite Version of a Broad-band Soft X-ray Polarimeter

Herman L. Marshall, Sarah N. T. Heine, Alan Garner +16

We describe a new implementation of a broad-band soft X-ray polarimeter, substantially based on a previous design. This implementation, the Pioneer Soft X-ray Polarimeter (PiSoX) i…

Ray-tracing a small orbital mission for soft-X-ray polarimetry

Hans Moritz Günther, Herman L. Marshall, Alan Garner

X-ray polarimetry is still largely uncharted territory. With the upcoming launch of IXPE, we will learn a lot more about X-ray polarization at energies above 2 keV, but so far no c…

Automated Transient Detection with Shapelet Analysis in Image-subtracted Data

Kendall Ackley, Stephen S. Eikenberry, Ceren Yildirim +2

We present a method for characterizing image-subtracted objects based on shapelet analysis to identify transient events in ground-based time-domain surveys. We decompose the image-…

The X-ray Polarization Probe mission concept

Keith Jahoda, Henric Krawczynski, Fabian Kislat +100

The X-ray Polarization Probe (XPP) is a second generation X-ray polarimeter following up on the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The XPP will offer true broadband polarim…

Evidence for hot clumpy accretion flow in the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038

T. Shahbaz, Y. Dallilar, A. Garner +3

We present simultaneous optical and near-infrared (IR) photometry of the millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038 during its low-mass X-ray binary phase. The r'- and K_s-band light curves…
