Scientific paper

The Extreme Physics Explorer (EPE) is a concept timing/spectroscopy mission that would use microchannel plate optics (MCPO) to provide 5m2 effective area focused to 1 arcmin onto a x-ray calorimeter. We describe science drivers for such a mission, one possible design for the large area MCPO needed for EPE, and the challenges of the large area MCPO design. Various options for including a polarimeter are discussed.
