Scientific paper

The Constellation X-ray Mission (formerly HTXS) is a Next Generation X-ray Observatory dedicated to observations at high spectral resolution (E/DeltaE ~300-3000), and broad energy bandpass (0.25-40 keV and possibly up to 100 keV). Constellation-X represents a major advance, providing as much as a factor of 100 increase in sensitivity over currently planned high resolution X-ray spectroscopy missions and will address many fundamental astrophysics questions such as the origin and distribution of the elements from carbon to zinc, the formation and evolution of clusters of galaxies, the validity of general relativity in the strong gravity limit, and the evolution of supermassive black holes. This poster will provide information about mission science and design.
