Luminosity Functions and Point Source Properties from Multiple Chandra Observations of M81

P. H. Sell, D. Pooley, A. Zezas +3

We present an analysis of 15 Chandra observations of the nearby spiral galaxy M81 taken over the course of six weeks in May--July 2005. Each observation reaches a sensitivity of ~1…

Further X-ray observations of EXO 0748-676 in quiescence: evidence for a cooling neutron star crust

N. Degenaar, M. T. Wolff, P. S. Ray +8

In late 2008, the quasi-persistent neutron star X-ray transient and eclipsing binary EXO 0748-676 started a transition from outburst to quiescence, after it had been actively accre…

XTE J1701-462 and its Implications for the Nature of Subclasses in Low-Magnetic-Field Neutron Star Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries

Jeroen Homan, Michiel van der Klis, Joel K. Fridriksson +8

We report on an analysis of RXTE data of the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS-LMXB) XTE J1701-462, obtained during its 2006-2007 outburst. The X-ray properties of t…

X-ray and Optical Study of Low Core Density Globular Clusters NGC6144 and E3

Shih Hao Lan, Albert K. H. Kong, Frank Verbunt +4

We report on the Chandra X-ray Observatory and Hubble Space Telescope observation of two low core density globular clusters, NGC6144 and E3. By comparing the number of X-ray source…

X-ray Sources and Their Optical Counterparts in the Galactic Globular Cluster M12 (NGC 6218)

Ting-Ni Lu, Albert K. H. Kong, Cees Bassa +4

We study a Chandra X-ray Observatory ACIS-S observation of the Galactic globular clusterM12. With a 26 ks exposure time, we detect 6 X-ray sources inside the half-mass radius (2.16…
