AREMBES: the Statement of Work.!ESA issued an ITT tender which covered “part” of the already planned ac;vi;es inside the X-IFU bkgworkpackage from the L2 environment to the GEANT4 valida;on (then the residual par;cle bkg asoutput).Fromthescien;ficpointofviewthisITTinvolvestheATHENAsatellite:X-IFU+WFI.
The Statement ofWork consists of 3 Parts, to be framed in 30Months of work (“%” relates to theallocated resources by ESA – 600 kEuro). Modulus a 10% of the overall budget for the projectmanagement,wehaveallocated:
• Part 1 (30%, 9 Month): Analyses of radia;on effects data and experience from previous X-raymissions, consolida;onof user requirements, improvement of L2 radia;on environmentmodels, andimprovementof the relevantbasicphysicsmodels to treatpropaga;onof chargedpar;cles,photonsandradia;onbackgroundinX-raymirrorsandsurroundingspacecra`structures
