Suzaku discovery of iron absorption lines in outburst spectra of the X-ray transient 4U 1630-472
Aya Kubota, Tadayasu Dotani, Jean Cottam +12
We present the results of six Suzaku observations of the recurrent black hole transient 4U1630-472 during its decline from outburst from February 8 to March 23 in 2006. All observa…
The Chandra Iron-L X-Ray Line Spectrum of Capella
Ehud Behar, Jean Cottam, Steven M. Kahn
An analysis of the iron L-shell emission in the publicly available spectrum of the Capella binary system, as obtained by the High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer on board…
High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the ultracompact LMXB pulsar 4U 1626-67
Miriam I. Krauss, Norbert S. Schulz, Deepto Chakrabarty +2
[abridged] We report results from four recent observations of the ultracompact LMXB pulsar 4U 1626-67. All the observations obtained high-resolution X-ray spectra of the system, tw…
The ASTRO-H Mission
Tadayuki Takahashi, Kazuhisa Mitsuda, Richard Kelley +174
The joint JAXA/NASA ASTRO-H mission is the sixth in a series of highly successful X-ray missions initiated by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS). ASTRO-H will…
Non-Detection of Gravitationally Redshifted Absorption Lines in the X-ray Burst Spectra of GS 1826-24
Albert K. H. Kong, Jon M. Miller, Mariano Mendez +6
During a 200 ks observation with the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer, we detected 16 type-I X-ray bursts from GS 1826-24. We combined the burst spectra in an attempt to…
X-Ray and Near-Infrared Observations of GX 339-4 in the Low/Hard State with Suzaku and IRSF
Megumi Shidatsu, Yoshihiro Ueda, Fumie Tazaki +10
X-ray and near-infrared (--) observations of the Galactic black hole binary GX 339--4 in the low/hard state were performed with Suzaku and IRSF in 2009 March. The…
