Diffractive X-Ray Telescopes [PDF]
Diffractive X-ray telescopes using zone plates, phase Fresnel lenses, or related optical elements have the potential to provide astronomers with true imaging capability with resolution several orders of magnitude better than available in any other waveband.

A Focusing X-Ray Telescope Monochromator [PDF]
In order to resolve clusters of X-ray lines emitted by flares (Fritz et al, 1967; Neupert and Swartz, 1970) and to determine line shapes, a considerable resolving power is needed. The angular size of flares, typically about 2’ will not allow the necessary resolution to be obtained without a very fine slit system combined with the flat crystal X-ray ...

Since the launch of Chandra twenty years ago, one of the greatest mysteries surrounding Quasar Jets is the production mechanism for their extremely high X-ray luminosity. Two mechanisms have been proposed. In the first view, the X-ray emission is inverse-

The High-energy Spectrum of the Young Planet Host V1298 Tau
V1298 Tau is a young pre-main-sequence star hosting four known exoplanets that are prime targets for transmission spectroscopy with current-generation instruments. This work pieces together observations from the NICER X-ray telescope, the Space Telescope

Halo Emission of the Cat's Eye Nebula, NGC 6543 Shock Excitation by Fast Stellar Winds [PDF]
Images taken with the Chandra X-ray telescope have for the the first time revealed the central, wind-driven, hot bubble (Chu et al. 2001), while Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 images of the Cat's Eye nebula, NGC 6543, show that the temperature of the

Innovative space x-ray telescopes [PDF]
We report on the progress in innovative X-ray mirror development with focus on requirements of future X-ray astronomy space projects. Various future projects in X-ray astronomy and astrophysics will require large lightweight but highly accurate segments with multiple thin shells or foils. The large Wolter 1 grazing incidence multiple mirror arrays, the
