Depth Calibration of Double-sided Strip Germanium Detectors for the Compton Spectrometer and Imager Satellite
Field R. Rogers, Sean N. Pike, Samer Alnussirat +12
Double-sided strip high-purity germanium detectors with three-dimensional position reconstruction capability have been developed over three decades, with space-based applications i…
Calibration of the ComPair Balloon Instrument
Nicholas Kirschner, Zachary Metzler, Lucas D. Smith +25
ComPair, the prototype of the All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory (AMEGO) mission concept, is a combined Compton imager and pair production telescope. It consists of four s…
Pre-flight Background Estimates for COSI
Savitri Gallego, Uwe Oberlack, Jan Lommler +14
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager (COSI) is a Compton telescope designed to survey the 0.2 - 5 MeV sky, consisting of a compact array of cross-strip germanium detectors. It is pl…
In-orbit Spectral Calibration Prospects for the COSI Space Telescope
Aravind B. Valluvan, Steven E. Boggs, Savitri Gallego +8
The Compton Spectrometer and Imager is an upcoming NASA space telescope in the MeV range. COSI's primary science goals include precisely mapping nuclear line and positron annihilat…
Evaluation of gamma-ray response of the AstroPix4 HV-CMOS active pixel sensor
Yusuke Suda, Regina Caputo, Daniel Violette +11
AstroPix is a novel high-voltage CMOS active pixel sensor being developed for a next generation gamma-ray space telescope, AMEGO-X. To meet AMEGO-X instrument requirements, AstroPi…
Background Measurements and Simulations of the ComPair Balloon Flight
Zachary Metzler, Nicholas Kirschner, Lucas Smith +31
ComPair, a prototype of the All-sky Medium Energy Gamma-ray Observatory (AMEGO), completed a short-duration high-altitude balloon campaign on August 27, 2023 from Fort Sumner, New…
