Grazing incidence imaging from 10 to 40 keV.
The prospects for imaging x rays at energies from 10 to 40 keV with grazing incidence optics are explored. The scientific rationale and existing laboratory measurements are reviewed. Measurements of reflectivity using possible mirror materials are described. Iridium-coated float glass gives an improved performance over gold by the factor predicted by theory but both had a lower absolute level. ...
متن کاملResolving the 10-40 Kev Cosmic X-ray Back- Ground with Constellation-x
The energy density of the Cosmic X–ray background (XRB) peaks around 30 keV (see Figure 1), an energy not yet probed by focussing imaging instruments. The first hard X–ray telescope due to fly on a space mission will be that on board Constellation–X. The imaging capability, besides providing an improvement of several orders of magnitude in sensitivity over current passively collimated detectors...
متن کاملAir kerma to HP(3) conversion coefficients for photons from 10 keV to 10 MeV, calculated in a cylindrical phantom.
In the framework of the ORAMED project (Optimization of RAdiation protection for MEDical staff), funded by the European Union Seventh Framework Programme, different studies were aimed at improving the quality of radiation protection in interventional radiology and nuclear medicine. The main results of the project were presented during a final workshop held in Barcelona in January 2011, the proc...
متن کاملSHEEP : the ASCA 5 - 10 keV survey
We present the first results of the hard (5-10 keV) ASCA GIS survey SHEEP (Search for the High Energy Extragalactic Population). We have analysed 149 fields covering an area of 39 deg 2 detecting 69 sources. Several of these appear to be associated with QSOs and Seyfert-1 galaxies but with hard X-ray spectra, probably due to high absorption (N H > 10 22 cm −2) Indeed, the hardness ratio analysi...
متن کاملThe BeppoSAX 2-10 keV Survey
We present the results of a 2-10 keV BeppoSAX survey based on 140 high galactic latitude MECS fields, 12 of which are deep exposures of “blank” parts of the sky. The limiting sensitivity is 5 × 10 erg cmswhere about 25% of the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB) is resolved into discrete sources. The logNlogS function, built with a statistically complete sample of 177 sources, is steep and in good ag...
