TL;DR: The X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer (XIPE) as discussed by the authors is a mission dedicated to Xray Astronomy which is in a competitive phase A as fourth medium size mission of ESA (M4).

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, a new methodology is given to determine basic parameters of flares from their X-ray light curves, which can be applied to observations made by Geosynchronous Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES), the Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) and other broadband spectrometers.

TL;DR: SphinxX as mentioned in this paper uses silicon PIN diode detectors for high-time resolution measurements of the solar spectra in the range 0.8-15 keV, which allows for discerning more than hundred separate energy bands in this range.
