Hierarchical Merging, Ultraluminous and Hyperluminous X-ray Sources
Andrew R. King, Walter Dehnen
Various arguments strongly suggest that the population of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs: apparent X-ray luminosity > Eddington limit for 10 Msun ~10^39 erg/s) in nearby galaxie…
Chemical enrichment of the complex hot ISM of the Antennae galaxies: I. Spatial and spectral analysis of the diffuse X-ray emission
A. Baldi, J. C. Raymond, G. Fabbiano +5
We present an analysis of the properties of the hot interstellar medium (ISM) in the merging pair of galaxies known as The Antennae (NGC 4038/39), performed using the deep, coadded…
The ultimate outcome of black hole - neutron star mergers
Melvyn B. Davies, Andrew J. Levan, Andrew R. King
We present a simple, semi--analytical description for the final stages of mergers of black hole (BH) -- neutron star (NS) systems. Such systems are of much interest as gravitationa…
X-raying Chemical Evolution and Galaxy Formation in The Antennae
G. Fabbiano, A. Baldi, A. R. King +6
We present the integrated 411 ks {\it Chandra} ACIS-S exposure of the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038/39). Besides a rich population of point-like sources, this spectacular image revea…
