Chandra observations of the globular cluster M54
Gavin Ramsay, Kinwah Wu
We have carried out a Chandra observation of the globular cluster M54. We detected 7 sources located within the half-mass radius of M54, at a flux limit of 1.5x10^-15 erg/s/cm in t…
On the nature of the ultraluminous X-ray transient in Cen~A (NGC 5128)
Kajal K. Ghosh, Mark H. Finger, Douglas A. Swartz +2
We combine 9 ROSAT, 9 Chandra, and 2 XMM-Newton observations of the Cen~A galaxy to obtain the X-ray light curve of 1RXH J132519.8-430312 (=CXOU J132519.9430317) spanning 1990 t…
The First Chandra Field
Martin C. Weisskopf, Thomas L. Aldcroft, Robert A. Cameron +6
Before the official first-light images, the Chandra X-Ray Observatory obtained an X-ray image of the field to which its focal plane was first exposed. We describe this historic obs…
Two-temperature accretion flows in magnetic cataclysmic variables: Structures of post-shock emission regions and X-ray spectroscopy
Curtis Saxton, Kinwah Wu, Mark Cropper +1
We use a two-temperature hydrodynamical formulation to determine the temperature and density structures of the post-shock accretion flows in magnetic cataclysmic variables (mCVs) a…
A Multi-wavelength Study of the X-ray Sources in NGC 5018
Kajal K. Ghosh, Douglas A. Swartz, Allyn F. Tennant +2
The E3 giant elliptical galaxy NGC5018 was observed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory on 14 April 2001. Results of analysis of these X-ray data as well as of complementary optical…
