Focusing of gamma-rays with Laue lenses: first results (2008)

Frontera, F., Loffredo, G., Pisa, A., Nobili, F., Carassiti, V., Evangelisti, F., ...

We report on the first results obtained from our development project of focusing gamma-rays ($>$60 keV) by using Laue lenses. The first lens prototype model has been assembled and tested. We describe...

Development status of a Laue lens project for gamma-ray astronomy (2007)

Frontera, F., Loffredo, G., Pisa, A., Milani, L., Nobili, F., Auricchio, N., ...

We report the status of the HAXTEL project, devoted to perform a design study and the development of a Laue lens prototype. After a summary of the major results of the design study, the approach...

SiliPET: design of an ultra-high resolution small animal PET scanner based on stacks of semi-conductor detectors (2007)

The gamma-ray burst monitor for Lobster-ISS (2006)

Amati, L., Frontera, F., Auricchio, N., Caroli, E., Basili, A., Bogliolo, A., ...

Lobster-ISS is an X-ray all-sky monitor experiment selected by ESA two years ago for a Phase A study (now almost completed) for a future flight (2009) aboard the Columbus Exposed Payload Facility of...

Study of the thickness of the dead layer below electrodes, deposited by electroless technique, in CdTe nuclear detectors, (2006)

Exploring the Hard X-/soft gamma-ray Continuum Spectra with Laue Lenses (2005)

Frontera, F., Pisa, A., De Chiara, P., Loffredo, G., Pellicciotta, D., Carassiti, V., ...

The history of X-ray astronomy has shown that any advancement in our knowledge of the X-ray sky is strictly related to an increase in instrument sensitivity. At energies above 60 keV, there are...
