XHUSH-FM is a radio station in Hermosillo, Sonora. It is owned by the Universidad de Sonora and broadcasts from its campus, with three repeaters in Caborca, Navojoa and Santa Ana.
XEUS-AM 850 signed on October 8, 1962, as the first broadcasting station of the Universidad de Sonora. It was joined in 1963 by XEUDS on shortwave and in 1965 by a TV station, XHUS-TV channel 8.
In 2002, Radio Universidad expanded into a statewide network with the inauguration of four FM radio stations, including the new XHUSH-FM 107.5 in Hermosillo. The AM station was later discontinued, as was the shortwave service.
XHUSH has several satellite stations:
XEUS (X-ray Evolving Universe Spectroscopy) was a space observatory plan developed by the European Space Agency as a successor to the successful XMM-Newton X-ray satellite telescope. It was merged to the International X-ray Observatory around 2008, but as that project ran into issues in 2010, the ESA component was forked off into Advanced Telescope for High Energy Astrophysics (ATHENA).
XEUS consisted of a mirror spacecraft that carried a large X-ray telescope, with a mirror area of about 5 m² and an imaging resolution better than 5″ for X-ray radiation with an energy of 1 keV. A detector spacecraft would have flown in formation with the telescope at a distance of approximately 35 m, in the focus of the telescope. The detectors qould have included a wide-field X-ray imager with an energy resolution of 150 eV at 6 keV, as well as a cryogenic narrow-field imager with an energy resolution of 2 eV at 1 keV.
XEUS would have been able to measure the X-ray spectrum and thereby the composition, temperature and velocities of hot matter in the early universe. It would address diverse questions like the origin and nature of black holes, their relation with star formation, the evolution of baryons and the formation of the heavy elements in the Universe.
