Chandra Observations of the Eastern Limb of the Vela Supernova Remnant
P. P. Plucinsky, R. K Smith, R. J. Edgar +5
We present results from two Chandra/ACIS observations of the so-called Vela ``Bullet D'' region on the eastern limb of the Vela supernova remnant. The Bullet D region is a bright X…
Analysis of On-Orbit ACIS Squeegee Mode Data on Chip I0
Shanil N. Virani, Paul P. Plucinsky, Catherine E. Grant +1
The MIT and CXC ACIS teams have explored a number of measures to ameliorate the effects of radiation damage suffered by the ACIS FI CCDs. One of these measures is a novel CCD read-…
The Low-Energy Spectral Response of the ACIS CCDs
Paul P. Plucinsky, Richard J. Edgar, Shanil N. Virani +2
The flight calibration of the spectral response of the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) below 1.5 keV is difficult because of the lack of strong lines in the calibration so…
Nonthermal X-Ray Emission from G266.2-1.2 (RX J0852.0-4622)
P. Slane, J. P. Hughes, R. J. Edgar +3
The newly discovered supernova remnant G266.2-1.2 (RX J0852.0-4622), along the line of sight to the Vela SNR, was observed with ASCA for 120 ks. We find that the X-ray spectrum is…
