Isolated neutron stars as Science Validation for XMM2ATHENA: Ensuring robust data for future X-ray Astronomy
Adriana Mancini Pires, Christian Motch, Axel Schwope +9
The discovery of radio-quiet, X-ray thermally emitting isolated neutron stars (XINSs) in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey revealed a previously overlooked component of the neutron star pop…
A first systematic characterization of cataclysmic variables in SRG/eROSITA surveys
Axel Schwope, Kira Knauff, Jan Kurpas +4
(abridged) We present an account of known cataclysmic variables (CVs) that were detected as X-ray sources in eROSITA X-ray surveys and have Gaia DR3 counterparts. We address standa…
Thermally emitting isolated neutron star candidates from the SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey
J. Kurpas, A. D. Schwope, A. M. Pires +1
The SRG/eROSITA All-Sky Survey (eRASS) allows for the creation of a complete sample of X-ray dim isolated neutron stars (XDINSs), which will significantly facilitate the study of t…
An Eccentric Planet Orbiting the Polar V808 Aurigae
McKenna Leichty, Peter Garnavich, Colin Littlefield +4
We analyze 15 years of eclipse timings of the polar V808 Aur. The rapid ingress/egress of the white dwarf and bright accretion region provide timings as precise as a few tenths of…
Compact white-dwarf binaries in the combined SRG/eROSITA/SDSS eFEDS survey
A. Schwope, J. Kurpas, P. Baecke +22
Aims. Compact white-dwarf binaries are selected from spectra obtained in the early SDSS-V plate program. A dedicated set of SDSS plate observations were carried out in the eFEDS fi…
Detection of pulsed X-ray emission from the isolated neutron star candidate eRASSU J131716.9-402647
J. Kurpas, A. D. Schwope, A. M. Pires +1
The X-ray source eRASSU J131716.9-402647 was recently identified from observations with Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG)/eROSITA as a promising X-ray dim isolated neutron star (XDINS)…
The SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey: First X-ray catalogues and data release of the western Galactic hemisphere
A. Merloni, G. Lamer, T. Liu +142
The eROSITA telescope array aboard the Spektrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) satellite began surveying the sky in December 2019, with the aim of producing all-sky X-ray source lists and sk…
