A Chandra Virgo cluster survey of spiral galaxies. I. Introduction to the survey and a new ULX sample
Roberto Soria, Mari Kolehmainen, Alister W. Graham +10
We present an analysis of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) population in 75 Virgo cluster late-type galaxies, including all those with a star formation rate >~ 1 M_{sun}/yr and…
Central X-ray point-sources found to be abundant in low-mass, late-type galaxies predicted to contain an intermediate-mass black hole
Alister W. Graham, Roberto Soria, Benjamin L. Davis +5
Building upon three late-type galaxies in the Virgo cluster with both a predicted black hole mass of less than 10 M and a centrally-located X-ray point-source,…
The XMM-Newton serendipitous survey IX. The fourth XMM-Newton serendipitous source catalogue
N. A. Webb, M. Coriat, I. Traulsen +28
Sky surveys produce enormous quantities of data on extensive regions of the sky. The easiest way to access this information is through catalogues of standardised data products. {\e…
The polarized spectral energy distribution of NGC 4151
F. Marin, J. Le Cam, E. Lopez-Rodriguez +3
NGC 4151 is among the most well-studied Seyfert galaxies that does not suffer from strong obscuration along the observer's line-of-sight. This allows to probe the central active ga…
Disk-Jet quenching of the Galactic Black Hole Swift J1753.5-0127
A. P. Rushton, A. W. Shaw, R. P. Fender +8
We report on radio and X-ray monitoring observations of the BHC Swift J1753.5-0127 taken over a ~10 year period. Presented are daily radio observations at 15 GHz with the AMI-LA an…
The Accreting Black Hole Swift J1753.5-0127 from Radio to Hard X-Ray
John A. Tomsick, Farid Rahoui, Mari Kolehmainen +19
(abridged) We report on multi-wavelength measurements of Swift J1753.5-0127 in the hard state at L=2.7e36 erg/s (assuming d=3 kpc) in 2014. The radio emission is optically thick sy…
The Low-Spin Black Hole in LMC X-3
James F. Steiner, Jeffrey E. McClintock, Jerome A. Orosz +4
Building upon a new dynamical model for the X-ray binary LMC X-3, we measure the spin of its black hole primary via the continuum-fitting method. We consider over one thousand ther…
The soft component and the iron line as signatures of the disc inner radius in Galactic black hole binaries
M. Kolehmainen, C. Done, M. Diaz Trigo
The inner radius of the accretion disc around a black hole in the low/hard state can be measured in one of two ways. Firstly, via the extent of broadening of the iron emission line…
The truncated disk from Suzaku data of GX 339-4 in the extreme very high state
Manami Tamura, Aya Kubota, Shinya Yamada +4
We report on the geometry of accretion disk and high energy coronae in the strong Comptonization state (the very high/steep power law/hard intermediate state) based on a Suzaku obs…
Modelling the high mass accretion rate spectra of GX 339-4: Black hole spin from reflection?
Mari Kolehmainen, Chris Done, Maria Diaz Trigo
We extract all the XMM-Newton EPIC pn burst mode spectra of GX 339-4, together with simultaneous/contemporaneous RXTE data. These include three disc dominated and two soft intermed…
Limits on spin determination from disc spectral fitting in GX 339-4
Mari Kolehmainen, Chris Done
We attempt to constrain the black hole spin in GX 339-4 from spectral fitting of disc dominated data using RXTE spectra from the three most recent outbursts. We use the best curren…
