The Extreme Physics Explorer
نویسنده
چکیده
Some tests of fundamental physics the equation of state at supra-nuclear densities, the metric in strong gravity, the effect of magnetic fields above the quantum critical value can only be measured using compact astrophysical objects: neutron stars and black holes. The Extreme Physics Explorer is a modest sized (∼500 kg) mission that would carry a high resolution (R ∼300) X-ray spectrometer and a sensitive X-ray polarimeter, both with high time resolution (∼5 μs) capability, at the focus of a large area (∼5 sq.m), low resolution (HPD∼1 arcmin) X-ray mirror. This instrumentation would enable new classes of tests of fundamental physics using neutron stars and black holes as cosmic laboratories.

متن کاملSolar Mini-Dimming Kinematics and Their Positive Correlations with Coronal Mass Ejections and Prominence
Solar mini-dimmings can be detect in the Extreme Ultra-Violet coronal eruptions. Here, sequences of 171_A images taken by Solar Dynamic Observatory/Atmospheric Imaging Assembaly on 13 June 2010 are used. In this special day, both of coronal mass ejection and prominence were observed. The average velocities and accelerations of 500 mini-dimmings which were detected using on feature based classif...
