Multiwavelength Monitoring of the BL Lacertae Object PKS 2155-304 in May 1994. II. The IUE Campaign
Elena Pian, C. Megan Urry, Aldo Treves +16
PKS 2155-304, the brightest BL Lac object in the ultraviolet sky, was monitored with the IUE satellite at ~1 hour time-resolution for ten nearly uninterrupted days in May 1994. The…
Understanding Jets from Sources Straddling the Fanaroff-Riley Divide
Preeti Kharb, Ethan Stanley, Matthew Lister +3
Results from Chandra-HST-VLA observations of 13 hybrid sources are presented. Data from ten sources in the literature are analysed along with new data from three hybrid blazars bel…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Using X-Ray Polarimetry to Probe the Physics of Black Holes and Neutron Stars
Henric Krawczynski, Giorgio Matt, Adam R. Ingram +54
This white paper highlights compact object and fundamental physics science opportunities afforded by high-throughput broadband (0.1-60 keV) X-ray polarization observations. X-ray p…
Relativistic X-ray jets at high redshift
Daniel A Schwartz, Aneta Siemiginowska, Diana M Worrall +6
Powerful radio sources and quasars emit relativistic jets of plasma and magnetic fields that travel hundreds of kilo-parsecs, ultimately depositing energy into the intra- or inter-…
A Multi-band Study of the remarkable Jet in Quasar 4C+19.44
Daniel Harris, Nicholas Lee, Dan Schwartz +14
We present arc-second-resolution data in the radio, IR, optical and X-ray for 4C+19.44 (=PKS 1354+195), the longest and straightest quasar jet with deep X-ray observations. We repo…
Radius-expansion burst spectra from 4U 1728-34: an ultracompact binary?
Duncan K. Galloway, Yangsen Yao, Herman Marshall +2
Recent theoretical and observational studies have shown that ashes from thermonuclear burning may be ejected during radius-expansion bursts, giving rise to photoionisation edges in…
