We present the\u0000performance and design details. Both ASICs feature 16 channels, with CTC being\u0000a Switched-Capacitor Array (SCA) sampler at 0.5 to 1 GSa/s with a 16,384 sample\u0000deep storage buffer, including the functionality to digitize full waveforms at\u0000arbitrary times.

Diez, Sébastien Guillot, Erwan Quintin","doi":"arxiv-2409.05757","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/arxiv-2409.05757","url":null,"abstract":"Context. Inferring spectral parameters from X-ray data is one of the\u0000cornerstones of high-energy astrophysics, and is achieved using software stacks\u0000that have been developed over the last twenty years and more. However, as\u0000models get more complex and spectra reach higher resolutions, these established\u0000software solutions become more feature-heavy, difficult to maintain and less\u0000efficient. Aims. We present jaxspec, a Python package for performing this task\u0000quickly and robustly in a fully Bayesian framework. Based on the JAX ecosystem,\u0000jaxspec allows the generation of differentiable likelihood functions compilable\u0000on core or graphical process units (resp. CPU and GPU), enabling the use of\u0000robust algorithms for Bayesian inference. Methods. We demonstrate the\u0000effectiveness of jaxspec samplers, in particular the No U-Turn Sampler, using a\u0000composite model and comparing what we obtain with the existing frameworks. We\u0000also demonstrate its ability to process high-resolution spectroscopy data and\u0000using original methods, by reproducing the results of the Hitomi collaboration\u0000on the Perseus cluster, while solving the inference problem using variational\u0000inference on a GPU. Results. We obtain identical results when compared to other\u0000softwares and approaches, meaning that jaxspec provides reliable results while\u0000being $sim 10$ times faster than existing alternatives. In addition, we show\u0000that variational inference can produce convincing results even on\u0000high-resolution data in less than 10 minutes on a GPU. Conclusions. With this\u0000package, we aim to pursue the goal of opening up X-ray spectroscopy to the\u0000existing ecosystem of machine learning and Bayesian inference, enabling\u0000researchers to apply new methods to solve increasingly complex problems in the\u0000best possible way.

A key technology gap towards reaching this goal\u0000are the development of ultra-low-noise photon counting detectors capable of\u0000measuring the incredibly low count rates coming from these planets which are at\u0000contrasts of $sim 1 times 10^{-10}$. Superconducting energy-resolving\u0000detectors (ERDs) are a promising technology for this purpose as, despite their\u0000technological challenges, needing to be cooled below their superconducting\u0000transition temperature ($< 1mathrm{K}$), they have essentially zero read\u0000noise, dark current, or clock-induced charge, and can get the wavelength of\u0000each incident photon without the use of additional throughput-reducing filters\u0000or gratings that spread light over many pixels. The use of these detectors on\u0000HWO will not only impact the science of the mission by decreasing the required\u0000exposure times for exo-Earth detection and characterization, but also in a\u0000wavefront sensing and control context when used for starlight suppression to\u0000generate a dark zone. We show simulated results using both an EMCCD and an ERD\u0000to ``dig a dark zone'' demonstrating that ERDs can achieve the same final\u0000contrast as an EMCCD in about half of the total time. We also perform a simple\u0000case study using an exposure time calculator tool called the Error Budget\u0000Software (EBS) to determine the required integration times to detect water for\u0000HWO targets of interest using both EMCCDs and ERDs.

In November 2023, we implemented a re-designed\u0000flex harness, which in the SRON test-bed has a length close to what is\u0000envisioned for the X-IFU flight harness. We report here on our characterization\u0000of the TDM system with the new flex harness, which allowed the system to\u0000achieve a co-added energy resolution at a level of 2.7~eV FWHM at 6~keV via\u000032-row readout. In addition, we provide an outlook on the upcoming integration\u0000of TDM readout into the X-IFU Focal-Plane Assembly Development Model.","PeriodicalId":501163,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - PHYS - Instrumentation and Methods for Astrophysics","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142217394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
