Neutral Atmospheric Density Measurement Using Insight-HXMT Data by the Earth Occultation Technique

Neutral Atmospheric Density Measurement Using Insight-HXMT Data by the Earth Occultation Technique

The Earth occultation technique has broad applications in both astronomy and atmospheric density measurements. We construct the background model during the occultation of the Crab Nebula observed by the Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT) at energies between 6 and 100 keV. We prop...
