Scientific paper

An all-sky survey in the hard x-ray band (3-40 keV) at significantly higher sensitivity than the HEAO A-1 survey would be valuable in finding new sources in a number of categories, both galactic and extragalactic, for more detailed studies. A silicon-strip coded-mask imager for X-rays in this energy band has been proposed, by a team headed by the author, to carry out such an all-sky survey. Recently, the Canadian Space Agency has approved a concept study to carry out a preliminary design of this instrument.
