TL;DR: The DUAL payload as discussed by the authors consists of an All-Sky Compton Imager (ASCI) and two optical modules, the Laue-Lens Optic (LLO) and the Coded-Mask Optic(CMO).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported on the data obtained between 2012 July and 2015 April, including 27 observations on Sgr A*, with a total exposure of ≃1 Ms. They found a total of 10 X-ray flares detected in the NuSTAR observation window, with luminosities in the range of 3-79 keV ~(0.2-4.8) with typical uncertainties of ±0.5 (90% confidence level).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the X-ray testing and characterization cycle that the optics are subjected to at the PTB's x-ray Pencil/Paraller Beam Facility (XPBF) 1 and 2 beamlines at the synchrotron radiation facility BESSY II.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on two NuSTAR observations of GRS 1741.9-2853, a faint neutron star low mass X-ray binary burster located 10' away from the Galactic center.

TL;DR: In this paper, a breadboard lens made of 15 crystals was used for the study of Type Ia supernovae (30m focal length) and the results were very encouraging, with a crystal orientation distribution lower than 10
