Light Echoes in Kerr Geometry: A Source of High Frequency QPOs from Random X-ray Bursts
Keigo Fukumura, Demosthenes Kazanas
We propose that high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (HFQPOs) can be produced from randomly-formed X-ray bursts (flashes) by plasma interior to the ergosphere of a rapidly-ro…
Gamma-Ray Pulsar Studies with GLAST
D. J. Thompson
Some pulsars have their maximum observable energy output in the gamma-ray band, offering the possibility of using these high-energy photons as probes of the particle acceleration a…
Pulse phase resolved analysis of the HMXB Cen X-3 over two binary orbits
S. Suchy, K. Pottschmidt, J. Wilms +7
We present a detailed analysis of observations of the high mass X-ray binary Cen X-3 spanning two consecutive binary orbits performed with the RXTE satellite in early March 1997. T…
Using Quantitative Spectroscopic Analysis to Determine the Properties and Distances of Type II-Plateau Supernovae: SNe 2005cs and 2006bp
Luc Dessart, Stephane Blondin, Peter J. Brown +8
We analyze the Type II Plateau supernovae (SN II-P) 2005cs and 2006bp with the non-LTE model atmosphere code CMFGEN. We fit 13 spectra in the first month for SN 2005cs and 18 for S…
The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer Survey of OVI Absorption in the Disk of the Milky Way
D. V. Bowen, E. B. Jenkins, T. M. Tripp +12
To probe the distribution and physical characteristics of interstellar gas at temperatures T ~ 3e5 K in the disk of the Milky Way, we have used the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Ex…
A multispectral view of the periodic events in eta Carinae
A. Damineli, D. J. Hillier, M. F. Corcoran +13
A full description of the 5.5-yr low excitation events in Eta Carinae is presented. We show that they are not as simple and brief as previously thought, but a combination of two co…
