| dc.description.abstract | The XRISM X-ray observatory will fly two advanced instruments, the Resolve high-resolution spectrometer and the Xtend wide-field imager. These instruments, particularly Resolve, pose calibration challenges due to the unprecedented combination of spectral resolution, spectral coverage, and effective area, combined with a need to characterize the imaging fidelity of the full instrument system to realize the mission’s ambitious science goals. We present the status of the XRISM in-flight calibration plan, building on lessons from Hitomi and other X-ray missions. We present a discussion of targets and observing strategies to address the needed calibration measurements, with a focus on developing methodologies to plan a thorough and flexible calibration campaign and provide insight on calibration systematic error. We also discuss observations that exploit Resolve’s spectral | en_US |
| dc.description.sponsorship | XRISM is being developed under an international collaboration of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the European Space Agency (ESA). We acknowledge the efforts of the instrument teams of XRISM, Hitomi, Suzaku, and ASTRO-E, whose work over the past two decades and more has lead to such an exciting mission. We especially thank members of the Hitomi In-Flight Calibration Planning Team who have moved on from XRISM, and whose efforts have greatly informed the XRISM plan. We finally thank members of the IACHEC, whose dedication in ensuring the best calibration maximizes the science we learn from these missions. Part of this work was performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344. | en_US |
