SNR 1E 0102.2-7219 as an X-ray Calibration Standard in the 0.5-1.0 keV Bandpass and Its Application to the CCD Instruments aboard Chandra, Suzaku, Swift and XMM-Newton
Paul P. Plucinsky, Andrew P. Beardmore, Adam Foster +4
We desire a simple comparison of the absolute effective areas of the current generation of CCD instruments onboard the following observatories: Chandra ACIS-S3, XMM-Newton (EPIC-MO…
Summary of the 2014 IACHEC Meeting
David Burrows, Fabio Gastaldello, Catherine E. Grant +6
We present the main results of the 9th meeting of the International Astronomical Consortium for High Energy Calibration (IACHEC), held in Warrenton (Virginia) in May 2014. Over 50…
Cross-Calibration of the XMM-Newton EPIC pn & MOS On-Axis Effective Areas Using 2XMM Sources
A. M. Read, M. Guainazzi, S. Sembay
We aim to examine the relative cross-calibration accuracy of the on-axis effective areas of the XMM-Newton EPIC pn and MOS instruments. Spectra from a sample of 46 bright, high-cou…
Summary of the 2013 IACHEC Meeting
Catherine E. Grant, Matteo Guainazzi, Lorenzo Natalucci +4
We present the main results of the 8th International Astronomical Consortium for High Energy Calibration (IACHEC) meeting, held in Theddingworth, Leicestershire, between March 25 a…
AXIOM: Advanced X-ray Imaging Of the Magnetosphere
G. Branduardi-Raymont, S. F. Sembay, J. P. Eastwood +22
Planetary plasma and magnetic field environments can be studied by in situ measurements or by remote sensing. While the former provide precise information about plasma behaviour, i…
Identifying XMM-Newton observations affected by solar wind charge exchange - Part II
J. A. Carter, S. Sembay, A. M. Read
We wished to analyse a sample of observations from the XMM-Newton Science Archive to search for evidence of exospheric solar wind charge exchange (SWCX) emission. We analysed 3012…
