International Workshop on Astronomical X–Ray Optics
Prague 2011
Presentation details
NANOX - proposed nano-satellite X-ray sky monitor
Presentation duration: 20 minutes
Presenter: Vladimir Tichy
The concept of the nano-satellite mission performing long-term monitoring of X-ray binaries is presented. Using of Schmidt multi-foil optics technolgy is assumed. It allows building of small telescope of mass and dimensions acceptable to be boarded on a nano-satellite. Schmidt optics allows observation of large field of view, so plenty of objects can be observed at once.
