This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hybrid CMOS detectors (HCD) have provided great benefit to the infrared and optical fields of astronomy, and they are poised to do the same for X-ray astronomy. Infrared HCDs have already flown on the Hubble Space Telescope and the Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mission and are slated to fly on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Hybrid CMOS X-ray detectors offer low susceptibility to radiation damage, low power consumption, and fast readout time to avoid pile-up. The fast readout time is necessary for future high throughput X-ray missions. The Speedster-EXD X-ray HCD presented in this dissertation offers new in-pixel features and reduces known noise sources seen on previous generation HCDs. The Speedster-EXD detector makes a great step forward in the development of these detectors for future space missions.This dissertation begins with an overview of future X-ray space mission concepts and their detector requirements. The background on the physics of semiconductor devices and an explanation of the detection of X-rays with these devices will be discussed followed by a discussion on CCDs and CMOS detectors. Next, hybrid CMOS X-ray detectors will be explained including their advantages and disadvantages. The Speedster-EXD detector and its new features will be outlined including its ability to only read out pixels which contain X-ray events. Test stand design and construction for the Speedster-EXD detector is outlined and the characterization of each parameter on two Speedster-EXD detectors is detailed including read noise, dark current, interpixel capacitance crosstalk (IPC), and energy resolution. Gain variation is also characterized, and a Monte Carlo simulation of its impact on energy resolution is described. This analysis shows that its effect can be successfully nullified with proper calibration, which would be important for a flight mission. Appendix B contains a study of the extreme tidal disruption event, Swift J1644+57, to search for periodicities in its X-ray light curve.

Book Synopsis Measuring the Energy Resolution of the Novel Speedster-EXD550 X-Ray Hybrid CMOS Detector by : Hannah Grzybowski
Download or read book Measuring the Energy Resolution of the Novel Speedster-EXD550 X-Ray Hybrid CMOS Detector written by Hannah Grzybowski and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speedster-EXD550 hybrid CMOS detectors (HCDs) implement event-driven readout, enabling only those pixels with X-rays to be readout and dramatically increasing the effective readout speeds. In this work, we optimize and characterize detector performance of the Speedster-EXD550, particularly the energy resolution in preparation for use in future missions, including the upcoming BlackCAT CubeSat. BlackCAT is a NASA CubeSat mission using an array of four Speedster- EXD550 hybrid CMOS detectors (HCDs). The purpose of this mission is to search for high- redshift gamma-ray bursts and other high-energy transients.

Book Synopsis Characterization of CCD-based Imaging X-ray Detectors for Diffraction Experiments by :
Download or read book Characterization of CCD-based Imaging X-ray Detectors for Diffraction Experiments written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 5 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High resolution CCD-based imaging detectors are successfully used in X-ray diffraction experiments. Some of the detectors are commercially available, others have been developed by research groups around the world. Reliable comparison of the performance must be based on through testing of all relevant characteristics of these detectors. We describe methods of measurements of detector parameters such as conversion gain, linearity, uniformity, point spread function, geometrical uniformity, dark current, and detective quantum efficiency. As an example for the characterization, test results of a single module fiberoptic taper/CCD X-ray detector will be presented. The projected performance of a large area, array detector consisting of 9 CCD`s and fiberoptic taper modules, will be given. This new detector (the ``Gold`` detector) will be installed on Beamline X8C at the Brookhaven National Laboratory at the NSLS Synchrotron.

Book Synopsis Photon Counting Detectors for X-ray Imaging by : Hiroaki Hayashi
Download or read book Photon Counting Detectors for X-ray Imaging written by Hiroaki Hayashi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book first provides readers with an introduction to the underlying physics and state-of-the-art application of photon counting detectors for X-ray imaging. The authors explain that a photon-counting imaging detector can realize quantitative analysis because the detector can derive X-ray attenuation information based on the analysis of intensity changes of individual X-ray. To realize this analysis, it is important to consider the physics of an object and detector material. In this book, the authors introduce a novel analytical procedure to create quantitative X-ray images for medical diagnosis.

Book Synopsis Springer Handbook of Microscopy by : Peter W. Hawkes
Download or read book Springer Handbook of Microscopy written by Peter W. Hawkes and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-02 with total page 1561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book features reviews by leading experts on the methods and applications of modern forms of microscopy. The recent awards of Nobel Prizes awarded for super-resolution optical microscopy and cryo-electron microscopy have demonstrated the rich scientific opportunities for research in novel microscopies. Earlier Nobel Prizes for electron microscopy (the instrument itself and applications to biology), scanning probe microscopy and holography are a reminder of the central role of microscopy in modern science, from the study of nanostructures in materials science, physics and chemistry to structural biology. Separate chapters are devoted to confocal, fluorescent and related novel optical microscopies, coherent diffractive imaging, scanning probe microscopy, transmission electron microscopy in all its modes from aberration corrected and analytical to in-situ and time-resolved, low energy electron microscopy, photoelectron microscopy, cryo-electron microscopy in biology, and also ion microscopy. In addition to serving as an essential reference for researchers and teachers in the fields such as materials science, condensed matter physics, solid-state chemistry, structural biology and the molecular sciences generally, the Springer Handbook of Microscopy is a unified, coherent and pedagogically attractive text for advanced students who need an authoritative yet accessible guide to the science and practice of microscopy.
