The focal-plane camera on the Rockets for Extended-source X-ray Spectroscopy (tREXS) is a large-area detector array that takes advantage of the large-format, 3-side-buttable design of the Teledyne e2v Vega-CIS113 CMOS sensor. This paper discusses the

We present a new, inexpensive, bench-top method for measuring groove period over large areas with high mapping resolution and high measurement accuracy, dubbed the grating mapper for accurate period (GMAP). The GMAP has the ability to measure large g

HaloSat is a CubeSat-class microsatellite sensitive in the 0.4 to 7.0 keV energy band and designed to survey the entire sky in search of soft x-ray emissions from highly ionized oxygen residing in the halo of the Milky Way galaxy. Those observations

We have fabricated a blazed x-ray reflection grating with a period of 160 nm using thermally activated selective topography equilibration (TASTE) and electron-beam (ebeam) physical vapor evaporation. TASTE makes use of grayscale ebeam lithography to

We present a data processing algorithm for angular reconstruction and event selection applied to 2-D photoelectron track images from X-ray polarimeters. The method reconstructs the initial emission angle of a photoelectron from the initial portion of
