Deconvolution-based PSF reconstruction method for NewAthena silicon pore optics MMs calibrated at BEaTriX

A. Chauhan, B. Salmaso, S. Basso, D. Sisana et autres

The Beam Expander Testing X-ray (BEaTriX) facility is an advanced experimental setup designed to test silicon pore optics mirror modules (SPO MMs) for the NewAthena telescope at the energies 4.51 keV and 1.49 keV. The 4.51 keV energy line has been operational …

Optimization of grazing incidence mirrors and its application to surveying X-ray telescopes

P. Conconi, Sergio Campana

Grazing incidence mirrors for X-ray astronomy are usually designed in the parabola-hyperbola (Wolter I) configuration. This design allows for optimal images on-axis, which however degrade rapidly with the off-axis angle. Mirror surfaces described by polynomia (with terms higher than order two), have …

Final performances of the X-ray Mirrors of the JET-X telescope

Ennio Poretti, Sergio Campana, O. Citterio, P. Conconi et autres

The Joint European Telesscope (JET-X) is one of the core scientific instruments of the SPECTRUM-X-Gamma mission. JET-X was designed to study X-ray emissions in the band 0.3-10 KeV. Its angular resolution is better than 20 arcsec; the values of the effective areas …
