Astronomical Tasks for Tests of X-Ray Optics in VZLUSAT-1 Nanosatellite

Astronomical Tasks for Tests of X-Ray Optics in VZLUSAT-1 Nanosatellite

VZLUSAT-1 nanosatellite (scheduled launch in spring 2017 from India) is a CubeSat mission which, besides other instrumentation, contains X-ray desk to perform efficiency tests of the X-ray optics. In this article the analysis of potential observational candidates for VZLUSAT-1 X-ray board is present...
