扩展源软X射线Spectroscopy的亚轨道有效载荷

A Suborbital Payload for Soft X-ray Spectroscopy of Extended Sources

Phillip H. H. Oakley, Randall L. McEntaffer, Webster Cash

摘要:

我们提出了一个亚轨道火箭有效载荷能够进行软X射线光谱的扩展源。有效载荷在17-107埃的带通中可以在直径为3.25度的源上达到~100(lambda/dlambda)的分辨率。这使得分析附近超新星遗迹的整体能量平衡和漫射软X射线背景的详细性质成为可能。仪器的主要组成部分是:线栅准直器,离面光栅阵列和气体电子倍增探测器。由于其相对简单的指向和遥测要求以及丰富的潜在科学目标,这种有效载荷适用于较长时间的轨道火箭。

英文摘要:

We present a suborbital rocket payload capable of performing soft X-ray spectroscopy on extended sources. The payload can reach resolutions of ~100(lambda/dlambda) over sources as large as 3.25 degrees in diameter in the 17-107 angstrom bandpass. This permits analysis of the overall energy balance of nearby supernova remnants and the detailed nature of the diffuse soft X-ray background. The main components of the instrument are: wire grid collimators, off-plane grating arrays and gaseous electron multiplier detectors. This payload is adaptable to longer duration orbital rockets given its comparatively simple pointing and telemetry requirements and an abundance of potential science targets.
