The mercury imaging X-ray spectrometer (MIXS) on bepicolombo

The Mercury Imaging X-ray Spectrometer (MIXS) on the BepiColombo Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) will measure fluorescent X-ray emission from the surface of Mercury in the energy range 0.5–7.5 keV, which is induced by incident solar X-rays and solar wind electrons and protons. These X-rays will reve...
