| Description | The Stellar X-Ray Polarimeter (SXRP) is the only X-ray polarimeter designed to view astrophysical sources that is currently scheduled to be flown. The SXRP is one of eight astronomical X-ray instruments that intended to be flown at the focal plane of the two SODART large-area metal-foil grazing-incidence X-ray telescopes on the Russian Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission. The engineering model of the SXRP was delivered to Russia in February 1994. Construction of the flight model (FM) is complete. The SXRP-FM is currently in storage at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory and will be delivered when required. |
