Abstract

It is a NASA Space Science Explorers program under the opportunity mission; it analyzes the electromagnetic, gravitational, and nuclear aspects of pulsars. NICER uses rotation-resolved spectroscopy in thermal and nonthermal emission spectra in the soft X-ray band with good precision and accuracy for detailed analysis of cosmic particle accelerators like in for quarks. It is also be used for X-ray navigation. Its advanced electronics helps it to analyze the data much efficiently (Davis et al. in J Geophys Res Oceans 99(C12):24383–24404) [1].
