摘要:

SuperAGILE是一个基于硅微带探测器的编码掩模实验。它在15-45 keV的标称能量范围内工作,在超过1球面度的视场内提供具有6弧分的轴上角分辨率的X射线天空的交叉一维图像。它是作为AGILE空间飞行任务的硬X射线监测器设计的,AGILE是意大利航天局的一颗小型卫星,专门用于对30 MeV - 50 GeV能量带的伽马射线天空进行成像。AGILE任务于2007年4月23日在近地轨道发射。在本文中,我们描述了SuperAGILE实验,它的结构和测试过程,以及它的性能在飞行前,地面测试和校准的基础上。

英文摘要:

SuperAGILE is a coded mask experiment based on silicon microstrip detectors. It operates in the 15-45 keV nominal energy range, providing crossed one-dimensional images of the X-ray sky with an on-axis angular resolution of 6 arcmin, over a field of view in excess of 1 steradian. It was designed as the hard X-ray monitor of the AGILE space mission, a small satellite of the Italian Space Agency devoted to image the gamma-ray sky in the 30 MeV - 50 GeV energy band. The AGILE mission was launched in a low-earth orbit on 23^{rd} April 2007. In this paper we describe the SuperAGILE experiment, its construction and test processes, and its performance before flight, based on the on-ground test and calibrations.
