Discovery of a Supernova Explosion at Half the Age of the Universe and its Cosmological Implications

S. Perlmutter, G. Aldering, M. Della Valle +20

The ultimate fate of the universe, infinite expansion or a big crunch, can be determined by measuring the redshifts, apparent brightnesses, and intrinsic luminosities of very dista…

A BeppoSAX LECS observation of the super-soft source CAL83

A. N. Parmar, P. Kahabka, H. W. Hartmann +1

We report on a BeppoSAX Low-Energy Concentrator Spectrometer (LECS) observation of the super-soft source (SSS) CAL83. The X-ray emission in SSS is believed to arise from nuclear bu…

A BeppoSAX observation of the X-ray pulsar 1E 2259+586 and the supernova remnant G109.1-1.0 (CTB 109)

A. N. Parmar, T. Oosterbroek, F. Favata +4

The 7 s X-ray pulsar 1E2259+586 and the supernova remnant (SNR) G109.1-1.0 (CTB 109) were observed by BeppoSAX in 1996 November. The pulse period of 6.978914 +/- 0.000006 s implies…
