#AthenaNuggets: Una escoba magnética para barrer protones del plano focal de Athena

#AthenaNuggets: A magnetic broom for sweeping protons off the Athena focal plane

    Valentina Fioretti (INAF OAS of Bologna) tells us about her current work to minimise the protons scattering in Athena due to the in-orbit low-energy particle background in the #AthenaNuggets 58. The team is developing a magnetic diverter using a novel approach to deal with this scattering effect to ensure the mission science objectives.
