Imaging with the ASTROSAT scanning sky monitor

The Scanning Sky Monitor aboard the Indian Multiwavelength Astronomy Satellite ASTROSAT will employ coded mask X-ray cameras, rotating continuously to scan the sky. This paper discusses a method of image reconstruction for such continuously moving coded mask cameras.     

Imaging systems using modulation and coded aperture masks

The advent of improved γ-ray telescopes which incorporate high angular resolution imaging properties and adequate sensitivity will advance this branch of astronomy from the discovery phase to the exploratory phase. As in other fields, such as radio and X-ray astronomy, which have recently undergone this change, it will prove a fascinating era. The recent development of position sensitive γ-ray detection planes operated in conjunction with a suitable coded aperture mask have made γ-ray telescopes feasible which are capable of generating γ-ray images of the sky with a precision of 1 arc minute over the photon energy range 0.1 to 10 MeV. With a sensitivity of at least 1–10 milliCrab and scintillation standard spectral resolution not only can a large number of discrete γ-ray objects be identified and studied in detail but nuclear γ-ray line images of extended objects such as the Galactic Plane, Cloud Complexes, and supernovae remnants may be generated by this class of astronomical instrument.     

A directional gamma-ray telescope using coded aperture techniques

A directional detector for γ-ray astronomy has been developed to image sources in the energy range 0.1 to 5 MeV. An array of 35 gain stabilized bismuth germanate detectors, together with a coded aperture mask based on a Uniformly Redundant Array (URA), allows imaging in 4° square sky bins over a 16° X 24° field-of-view. The position of a strong point source, such as the Crab Nebula, can be determined to within ?1°. A complementary “anti-mask” greatly reduces systematic effects arising from non-uniform background rates amongst the detectors. The telescope has an effective area of 190 cm² and an energy resolution of 19.5% FWHM at 662 keV. Results of laboratory tests of the imaging system, including the ability to image multiple sources, uniformity of response over the field-of-view, and the effect of the “anti-mask”, are in good agreement with computer simulations. Features of the flight detector system are described and results of laboratory tests and computer simulations are reviewed. A balloon flight of the telescope is planned for the fall of 1982.     

Hard X-ray astronomy from balloons

The region of the electromagnetic spectrum between 15 keV and 300 keV is the first high energy photon band available to the astronomer at balloon altitudes. It also represents the point at which a change in experimental technique is required since grazing incidence X-ray mirrors, and, apart from the use of xenon, gas proportional counters become impracticable Thin, actively shielded sodium iodide detectors form the mainstream X-ray detection units. Directionality is achieved by means of honeycomb and modulation collimators. However as suitable position sensitive planes are developed it is possible to anticipate the increasing usage of the coded aperture mask as the key element for fine angular imaging. Balloon-borne hard X-ray telescopes tend to deploy larger sensitive areas than their satellite cousins, and for this reason, with suitably fast timing of the data, may be used to study the classes of objects which exhibit rapid temporal X-ray intensity variations. Spectral studies are also of great astrophysical importance in this range. Apart from the interest in neutron star line emissions, observations in the soft X-ray region have invariably left doubts as to the true nature of the local production mechanisms for specific objects, this is due to the lack of precise definition of the spectral shape of the emissions, particularly at higher photon energies experimental techniques. The usage of balloons and related astrophysical problems are reviewed.     

一种形状自适应的嵌入式小波图像编码器

形状自适应的小波变换编码可以编码任意形状的物体,不但保持了物体的纹理信息,而且编码不会带来不必要的冗余.但是当对任意形状的物体进行小波变换时,会由于变换序列的长度、下采样位置的不同而带来一些变化.文章利用懒小波对任意形状的掩膜进行变换,并且采用9-7滤波器的提升小波形式,很好地解决了这些问题.最终通过修正的形状自适应的SPIHT算法,对任意形状物体的内部纹理进行编码压缩.与原始算法相比,性能提高了大约0.2 dB.      

X-ray imaging techniques— modulation collimator and coded mask

Imaging over the hard X-ray energy band may be achieved by masking the flux with proper obstacles. The imaging modulation collimator has been developed and has been applied thus far, e.g., to produce hard X-ray pictures of the solar flare and to construct the X-ray image of the Crab Nebula up to the angular resolution of ～ 10 arcsec. Variations of the concept such as the Fourier Transform Telescope are discussed. Virtue of the modulation collimator is that high angular resolution may be achieved with a relatively simple detector system and that a wide field of view may be accomodated. Among several proposed coded masks, the techniques of Hadamard transform are discussed in some details. The coded mask is provided with a better total transmission, but its angular resolution is limited due to presently limited spatial resolution of the detector. Developments of the technique of the position sensitive detector are awaited for further improvements of the resolution.     

An imaging telescope for soft gamma ray astronomy

A telescope capable of producing images of the gamma ray sky in the energy range 0.2–20 MeV with an angular resolution of a few tenths of a degree is presented. This capability is achieved by means of a large array of Sodium Iodide position sensitive elements together with a coded imaging mask. The expected performance, derived from calculations and preliminary laboratory tests, is described.     

The observations of AGNs in the 40–1300 keV energy range by the SIGMA telescope

The SIGMA telescope realizes images of the sky in the hard X-ray domain (40 keV–1.3 MeV) through a coded mask system. The extragalactic study was one of the main objectives and has brought new results in our knowledge of the Active Galactic Nuclei behavior at high energy.

In fact, the variability is the most important factor as all these objects have been showed to display strong evolution in intensity or/and spectral shape. Moreover, the discovery of a new hard X-ray source close to 3C273 and probably strongly absorbed below 40–50 keV could have many consequences in the extragalactic field.     

Wide field cameras for SAX

SAX is an Italian X-ray satellite with a Dutch contribution that will be placed in orbit in 1994. The prime scientific object of SAX is to cover an energy bandwidth that ranges from 0.1 keV up to 200 keV. Among other instruments, SAX will consist of two X-ray Wide Field Cameras built by the Space Research Organisation Netherlands at Utrecht. The WFCs are based on the coded mask principle, the reconstruction of the image takes place on ground. The field of view is 20 degrees square full width at half maximum (FWHM), the angular resolution 5 arcminutes (FWHM) and the energy band ranges from 1.8 to 30 keV with a resolution of 18% at 6 keV. The sensitive area is 200 cm² at 6 keV. The mask pattern is based on a pseudo random array with 255 × 257 elements of 1 mm², 50% of which are transparent.     

The SIGMA mission

SIGMA, a hard X-ray/medium energy gamma ray (30 keV-2 MeV) imaging experiment, is being designed and constructed to attain an angular resolution of the order of 1 arcminute, and a sensitivity of several milliCrabs. The instrument uses a position sensitive detector of the Anger camera variety, and a two dimensional coded mask. The results of the instrument definition study are presented; a flight model will be constructed for a late 1987 launch.

基于CLEAN算法对一维综合孔径辐射计成像误差的校正
