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.

TL;DR: The X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer (XIPE) as mentioned in this paper is composed of two out of the three existing JET-X telescopes with two Gas Pixel Detectors (GPDs) filled with a He-DME mixture at their focus, and two additional GPDs filled with pressurized Ar DME facing the sun.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analysis based on down-going neutrinos for the first time, and describe the search procedure, the possible sources of background, the method to compute the exposure and the associated systematic uncertainties.

TL;DR: The ASTRI SST-2M prototype camera as discussed by the authors is designed to detect cosmic primary gamma ray energies from few TeV up to hundreds of TeV with high detection efficiency by combining silicon photo-multiplier sensors and suitable front-end electronics.

TL;DR: The main features of the ASTRI camera, its performance and results obtained during the commissioning phase of theASTRI SST-2M prototype are described in view ofThe ASTRI mini-array implementation.
