An Overabundance of Transient X-ray Binaries within 1 pc of the Galactic Center
M. P. Muno, E. Pfahl, F. K. Baganoff +4
During five years of Chandra observations, we have identified seven X-ray transients located within 23 pc of Sgr A*. These sources each vary in luminosity by more than a factor of…
Identification of an Extended Accretion Disk Corona in the Hercules X-1 Low State: Moderate Optical Depth, Precise Density Determination, and Verification of CNO Abundances
Mario A. Jimenez-Garate, John C. Raymond, Duane A. Liedahl +1
We identify an accretion disk atmosphere and corona from the high resolution X-ray spectrum of Hercules X-1, and we determine its detailed physical properties. More than two dozen…
Long term variability of Cygnus X-1, III. Radio-X-ray correlations
T. Gleissner, J. Wilms, G. G. Pooley +7
Long time scale radio-X-ray correlations in black holes during the hard state have been found in many sources and there seems to emerge a universal underlying relationship which qu…
Simultaneous Chandra and RXTE Spectroscopy of the Microquasar H~1743-322: Clues to Disk Wind and Jet Formation from a Variable Ionized Outflow
J. M. Miller, J. Raymond, J. Homan +7
We observed the bright phase of the 2003 outburst of the Galactic black hole candidate H 1743-322 in X-rays simultaneously with Chandra and RXTE on four occasions. The Chandra/HETG…
Diffuse X-ray Emission in a Deep Chandra Image of the Galactic Center
M. P. Muno, F. K. Baganoff, M. W. Bautz +6
We examine the spectrum of diffuse emission detected in the 17' by 17' field around Sgr A* during 625 ks of Chandra observations. The spectrum exhibits He-like and H-like lines fro…
XMM-Newton EPIC & OM observations of Her X-1 over the 35 day beat period
Silvia Zane, Gavin Ramsay, Mario A. Jimenez-Garate +2
We present the results of a series of XMM-Newton EPIC and OM observations of Her X-1, spread over a wide range of the 35 day precession period. We confirm that the spin modulation…
