- W2279682736 abstract "The MIRAX experiment is a wide-field coded-aperture hard X-ray imager which will be the first Brazilian-led space astronomy project; protoMIRAX is a balloon-borne experiment developed to test several MIRAX subsystems in a near-space environment and to demonstrate technological developments. Here we describe both experiments and highlight their main expected contributions. The Monitor e Imageador de Raios X (MIRAX), under development at the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), Brazil, is a hard X-ray astronomy experiment that is expected to be launched in low-Earth orbit (650 km altitude, 15 inclination) onboard the Lattes satellite mission in 2018 for a lifetime of 3+ years (see Figure 1). The hard X-ray band is particularly important to study accretion onto black holes and neutron stars, including non-thermal processes of emission such as the ones occuring on jets and other hot relativistic astrophysical plasmas. MIRAX main goals include the characterization, with unprecedented depth and time coverage, of a large sample of transient and variable phenomena on accreting neutron stars and black holes, as well as Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) and both short and long GRBs (Braga 2006). This will be achieved by the combined operation of a set of two coded-aperture telescopes that will operate in scanning mode in a near-Equatorial circular LEO. MIRAX consists essentially in two codedaperture imaging telescopes equipped with cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid-state roomtemperature semiconductor detectors. One telescope (T1) is being developed at INPEs Astrophysics Division and will fly in a high altitude (∼43 km) balloon in 2014 for testing and demonstration; this development is called the protoMIRAX project . T1 uses an array of 13×13 CZT planar detectors with dimensions 10mm×10mm×2mm and a 1mm-thick lead coded mask with 20mm openings and an extended 13×13 Modified Uniformly Redundant" @default.
