XMM-Newton EPIC observations of the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 5204 X-1
T. P. Roberts, R. S. Warwick, M. J. Ward +2
We present the results of two XMM-Newton observations of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC 5204 X-1. The EPIC spectra are well-fit by the standard spectral model of a black-…
An XMM-Newton view of M101 - II. Global X-ray source properties
L. P. Jenkins, T. P. Roberts, R. S. Warwick +2
We present the global X-ray properties of the point source population in the grand-design spiral galaxy M101, as seen with XMM-Newton. 108 X-ray sources are detected within the D25…
XMM-Newton observations of the interacting galaxy pairs NGC7771/0 and NGC2342/1
L. P. Jenkins, T. P. Roberts, M. J. Ward +1
We present XMM-Newton X-ray observations of the interacting galaxy pairs NGC7771/7770 and NGC2342/2341. In NGC7771, for the first time we are able to resolve the X-ray emission int…
XMM-Newton observations of the starburst merger galaxies NGC 3256 & NGC 3310
L. P. Jenkins, T. P. Roberts, M. J. Ward +1
We present XMM-Newton EPIC observations of the two nearby starburst merger galaxies NGC 3256 & NGC 3310. The broad-band (0.3-10 keV) integrated X-ray emission from both galaxies sh…
A dipping black-hole X-ray binary candidate in NGC 55
A-M. Stobbart, T. P. Roberts, R. S. Warwick
XMM-Newton EPIC observations have revealed a bright point-like X-ray source in the nearby Magellanic-type galaxy NGC 55. At the distance of NGC 55, the maximum observed X-ray lumin…
Chandra observations of five ultraluminous X-ray sources in nearby galaxies
T. P. Roberts, R. S. Warwick, M. J. Ward +1
We report the results of a programme of dual-epoch Chandra ACIS-S observations of five ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) in nearby spiral galaxies. All five ULXs are detected as u…
