GEMS x-ray polarimeter performance simulations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the simulation package Penelope to model the physics of the interaction of the initial photoelectron with the detector gas and to determine the distribution of charge deposited in the detector volume.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Performance verification of the Gravity and Extreme Magnetism Small explorer (GEMS) x-ray polarimeter

TL;DR: In this article, a photoelectric gas polarimeter was used to measure X-ray polarization in the 2-10 keV range utilizing a time projection chamber (TPC) and advanced micro-pattern gas electron multiplier (GEM) techniques.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Large-area reflection grating spectrometer for the Constellation-X mission

TL;DR: In this article, a reflective grating spectrometer was used to provide high resolution spectra for multiple spectra in the spectral feature rich, soft x-ray band, as a part of the spectroscopic readout array.

The X-ray Polarization Probe mission concept

Keith Jahoda, +102 more
TL;DR: The X-ray Polarization Probe (XPP) as discussed by the authors is a second generation Xray polarimeter following up on the Imaging Xray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), which offers true broadband polarimetery over the wide 0.2-60 keV bandpass in addition to imaging polarimetry from 2-8 keV.
