PoGOLite(偏振伽马射线观测器,轻型版本)是一种气球载仪器,可测量来自脉冲星、活动星系核、星系 X 射线双星和吸积黑洞等各种天文源的能量范围 25-100keV 的软伽马射线的偏振。这种辐射的偏振特性可以揭示有关观测源的几何形状、磁场和发射机制的重要新信息。首次飞行计划于 2009 年进行。在本文中,我们介绍了该项目的现状。
PoGOLite (the Polarized Gamma-ray Observer, light-weight version) is a balloon-borne instrument that will measure the polarization of soft gamma-rays in the energy range 25–100keV from various astronomical sources such as pulsars, active galactic nuclei, galactic X-ray binaries and accreting black holes. The polarization properties of such radiation can reveal important new information about the geometry, magnetic fields and the emission mechanisms of the observed sources. The first flight is scheduled for 2009. In this paper, we present the current state of the project.
