Thermal Filters for the ATHENA X-IFU: Ongoing Activities Toward the Conceptual Design

Barbera, Marco Argan, A. Bozzo, E.

ATHENA is the L2 mission selected by ESA to pursue the science theme "Hot and Energetic Universe." One of the two focal plane instruments is the X-ray Integral Field Unit, an array of TES microcalorimeters operated at T< 100 mK. To allow the X-ray photons focused by the telescope to reach the detector, windows have to be opened on the cryostat...
