摘要:

XEUS任务包括两颗卫星:在1千电子伏和7千电子伏收集面积分别为5平方米和2平方米,成像分辨率为5”HEW的镜像航天器和携带焦平面仪器的有效载荷航天器。XEUS被提交给欧空局宇宙视野,并被选为大型飞行任务的高级研究。基线设计包括XPOL,这是一种基于光电效应的偏振计,它利用大的有效面积,可以研究微弱的光源和长焦距,从而产生非常好的空间分辨率,可以研究扩展光源的空间特征。我们展示了如何,与XEUS,旋光成为一个有效的工具,在处置的天文学界。

英文摘要:

The XEUS mission incorporates two satellites: the Mirror Spacecraft with 5 m2 of collecting area at 1 keV and 2 m2 at 7 keV, and an imaging resolution of 5" HEW and the Payload Spacecraft which carries the focal plane instrumentation. XEUS was submitted to ESA Cosmic Vision and was selected for an advanced study as a large mission. The baseline design includes XPOL, a polarimeter based on the photoelectric effect, that takes advantage of the large effective area which permits the study of the faint sources and of the long focal length, resulting in a very good spatial resolution, which allows the study of spatial features in extended sources. We show how, with XEUS, Polarimetry becomes an efficient tool at disposition of the Astronomical community.
