Groups and the Entropy Floor- XMM-Newton Observations of Two Groups
R. Mushotzky, E. Figueroa-Feliciano, M. Loewenstein +1
Using XMM-Newton spatially resolved X-ray imaging spectroscopy we obtain the temperature, density, entropy, gas mass, and total mass profiles for two groups of galaxies out to ~0.3…
Comparison of XMM-Newton EPIC, Chandra ACIS-S3, ASCA SIS and GIS, and ROSAT PSPC Results for G21.5-0.9, 1E0102.2-7219, and MS1-54.4-0321
S. L. Snowden
This paper presents a ``man on the street'' view of the current status of the spectral cross calibration between the XMM-Newton EPIC, Chandra ACIS-S3, ASCA SIS and GIS, and ROSAT P…
The large scale structure of the soft X-ray background. II: Galaxies
Andrzej M. Soltan, Guenther Hasinger, Roland Egger +2
The intensity of the soft X-Ray background is correlated with the distribution of galaxies. To demonstrate this, magnitude limited galaxy samples extracted from bright galaxy catal…
The large scale structure of the soft X-ray background. I: Clusters of galaxies
Andrzej M. Soltan, Guenther Hasinger, Roland Egger +2
Large-scale fluctuations of the X-ray background are investigated using the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. The autocorrelation function of the extragalactic background at 1 keV is determine…
