GRIPS - Gamma-Ray Imaging, Polarimetry and Spectroscopy

Fransson, Claes; Leibundgut, Bruno; Wilms, Jörn +65 more

We propose to perform a continuously scanning all-sky survey from 200 keV to 80 MeV achieving a sensitivity which is better by a factor of 40 or more compared to the previous missions in this energy range (COMPTEL, INTEGRAL; see Fig. 1). These gamma-ray observations will be complemented by observations in the soft X-ray and (near-)infrared region …

AVES: A high performance computer cluster array for the INTEGRAL satellite scientific data analysis

Ubertini, Pietro; Federici, Memmo; Martino, Bruno Luigi

In this paper we describe a new computing system array, designed, built and now used at the Space Astrophysics and Planetary Institute (IAPS) in Rome, Italy, for the INTEGRAL Space Observatory scientific data analysis. This new system has become necessary in order to reduce the processing time of the INTEGRAL data accumulated during the more than …
