Micro-X探空火箭是NASA资助的X射线望远镜有效载荷，于2018年7月22日完成首次飞行。这一事件标志着过渡边缘传感器（TES）及其基于SQUID的多路复用读出系统在太空中的首次运行。不幸的是，由于ACS的指向故障，火箭在五分钟的观测期间一直在旋转，没有收集到任何科学数据。然而，从内部校准源收集的数据标志着有效载荷的部分成功，并提供了一个独特的机会来研究TES和SQUID在太空中的响应。特别令人感兴趣的是NIST MUX 06 a SQUID读出系统在地球磁场中翻滚时的磁场响应。我们提出了一个模型来解释SQUID的基线响应，这导致一个子集的像素未能“锁定”的整个观察期。Micro-X火箭的未来飞行将包括NIST MUX 18 b SQUID系统，该系统具有显着降低的磁化率。
英文摘要：
The Micro-X sounding rocket is a NASA funded X-ray telescope payload that completed its first flight on July 22, 2018. This event marked the first operation of Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) and their SQUID-based multiplexing readout system in space. Unfortunately, due to an ACS pointing failure, the rocket was spinning during its five minute observation period and no scientific data was collected. However, data collected from the internal calibration source marked a partial success for the payload and offers a unique opportunity to study the response of TESs and SQUIDs in space. Of particular interest is the magnetic field response of the NIST MUX06a SQUID readout system to tumbling through Earth's magnetic field. We present a model to explain the baseline response of the SQUIDs, which lead to a subset of pixels failing to "lock" for the full observational period. Future flights of the Micro-X rocket will include the NIST MUX18b SQUID system with dramatically reduced magnetic susceptibility.
REX: X-ray experiment on the Water Recovery Rocket
本文介绍了火箭实验（REX）的一部分，一个双有效载荷火箭活动的美国宇航局的探空火箭黑布兰特九与水回收技术。这次任务是一次亚轨道探空火箭飞行，于2018年4月4日发射并回收，目标是船帆座超新星遗迹。REX的目的是对为空间应用设计的机载设备的技术准备程度进行分类。这些设备是两个宽视场X射线望远镜，由龙虾眼（LE）光学器件与非冷却Timepix探测器（256 x 256 px@55 um）和附加传感器组成。第一台望远镜使用LE模块的二维组合，焦距为1米，视场（FOV）为1.0 x 1.2度，并在3 - 60 keV的能量范围内工作。第二个望远镜是一个一维LE，焦距为250 mm，FOV为2.7 x 8.0度，能量范围为3 - 40 keV。X射线望远镜还配备了一台分辨率为1，280 x 1，024 px的可见光谱照相机，用于获取所观察到的辐射源的图像，并核实由此确定的火箭运载器的指向。其他设备还包括红外阵列传感器和惯性测量单元，用于未来的小型卫星任务。数据处理器和通信系统使用机器人操作系统构建，系统和电子设备都在飞行中部署和操作。发射后成功恢复了硬件，并提取了数据。
