A novel gaseous two-dimensional imaging detector "Micro Pixel Chamber (micro-PIC)" has been developed. This detector is based on double sided printed circuit board (PCB). We have developed large area (10cm x 10cm) micro-PICs with 65536…

The POSiCS camera is a handheld, small field-of-view gamma camera developed for multipurpose use in radio-guided surgery (RGS), with sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) as its benchmark application. This compact and lightweight detector…

AstroPix is a high-voltage CMOS (HV-CMOS) monolithic active pixel sensor originally developed to enable precision gamma-ray imaging and spectroscopy in the medium-energy regime (approximately 100 keV-100 MeV) based on the groundwork laid by…

The Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on board the Spitzer Space Telescope observed about 15,000 objects during the cryogenic mission lifetime. Observations provided low-resolution (R~60-127) spectra over ~5-38um and high-resolution (R~600)…

The Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT) is a broad band X-ray and gamma-ray (1-3000 keV) astronomy satellite. The High Energy X-ray telescope (HE) is one of its three main telescopes. The main detector plane of HE is…

A compact and modular X and gamma-ray imaging spectrometer (XGIS) has been designed as one of the instruments foreseen on-board the THESEUS mission proposed in response to the ESA M5 call. The experiment envisages the use of CsI…

IDeF-X HD is a 32-channel analog front-end with self-triggering capability optimized for the readout of 16 x 16 pixels CdTe or CdZnTe pixelated detectors to build low power micro gamma camera. IDeF-X HD has been designed in the standard AMS…

INTPIX4NA is an integration-type silicon-on-insulator pixel detector. This detector has a 14.1 x 8.7 mm^2 sensitive area, 425,984 (832 column x 512 row matrix) pixels and the pixel size is 17 x 17 um^2. This detector was developed for…

We report about the status of the PICsIT layer of the imager IBIS. The instrument has been tested in both Spectral Imaging and Spectral Timing Mode. PICsIT Single Events, Multiple and ISGRI data of the Crab are simultaneously fitted to a…

The Medium Energy X-ray telescope (ME) is one of the three main telescopes on board the Insight Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT) astronomy satellite. ME contains 1728 pixels of Si-PIN detectors sensitive in 5-30 keV with a…

The SPI instrument has been launched on-board the INTEGRAL observatory on October 17, 2002. SPI is a spectrometer devoted to the sky observation in the 20 keV-8 MeV energy range using 19 germanium detectors. The performance of the cryogenic…

The Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on board the Hinode spacecraft has been operating since 2006, returning high resolution data in the 170-212 and 246-292 A wavelength regions. EIS has four slit options, with the narrow 1"…

We report the in-orbit performance of the Gas Slit Camera (GSC) on the MAXI (Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image) mission carried on the International Space Station (ISS). Its commissioning operation started on August 8, 2009, confirmed the…

The Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) is one of the three science instruments on ESA's far infrared and submillimetre observatory. It employs two Ge:Ga photoconductor arrays (stressed and unstressed) with 16x25 pixels,…

Compton telescopes provide a good sensitivity over a wide field of view in the difficult energy range running from a few hundred keV to several MeV. Their angular resolution is, however, poor and strongly energy dependent. We present a…

We report on the assessment of the imaging performance of CITIUS -- a high-speed X-ray detector developed for the large-scale synchrotron radiation facility SPring-8-II -- for heavy charged particles and neutrons. To characterize the…

DESHIMA (Deep Spectroscopic HIgh-redshift MApper) is a broadband integrated superconducting spectrometer (ISS) for millimeter (mm) / sub-millimeter (sub-mm) wave astronomy based on Kinetic Inductance Detectors (KIDs). This paper describes…
