The quiescent intracluster medium in the core of the Perseus cluster

Felix Aharonian, +224 more
- 06 Jul 2016 - 
TL;DR: X-ray observations of the core of the Perseus cluster reveal a remarkably quiescent atmosphere in which the gas has a line-of-sight velocity dispersion of 164 ± 10 kilometres per second in the region 30–60 kiloparsecs from the central nucleus, infering that a total cluster mass determined from hydrostatic equilibrium in a central region would require little correction for turbulent pressure.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE)

TL;DR: The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) as mentioned in this paper is an international collaboration for a scientific mission that dramatically brings together the unique talents of the partners to expand observation space by simultaneously adding polarization measurements to the array of source properties currently measured (energy, time, and location).
Proceedings ArticleDOI

The ASTRO-H mission

Tadayuki Takahashi, +176 more
- 01 Jan 2010 - 
TL;DR: The ASTRO-H mission is the sixth in a series of highly successful X-ray missions initiated by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

XIPE: the X-ray imaging polarimetry explorer

Paolo Soffitta, +106 more
TL;DR: The X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer (XIPE) as mentioned in this paper was proposed in 2012 to the first ESA call for a small mission with a launch in 2017, but the proposal was, unfortunately, not selected.
