Ray-tracing critical-angle transmission gratings for the X-ray Surveyor and Explorer-size missions

We study a critical angle transmission (CAT) grating spectrograph that delivers a spectral resolution significantly above any X-ray spectrograph ever own. This new technology will allow us to resolve kinematic components in absorption and emission lines of galactic and extragalactic matter down to u...
