On the Nova Rate in M87
A. W. Shafter, A. Kundu, M. Henze
Recently, Shara and collaborators searched for novae in M87 in a series of images originally acquired in HST program #10543 (PI: Baltz), finding a surprisingly high nova rate of $3…
An excess of low-mass X-ray binaries in the outer halo of NGC 4472
Lennart M. van Haaften, Thomas J. Maccarone, Paul H. Sell +4
We present new Chandra observations of the outer halo of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4472 (M49) in the Virgo Cluster. The data extend to 130 kpc (28'), and have a combined expo…
Further constraints on variations in the IMF from LMXB populations
Mark B. Peacock, Stephen E. Zepf, Arunav Kundu +6
We present constraints on variations in the initial mass function (IMF) of nine local early-type galaxies based on their low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) populations. Comprised of accr…
Deep Chandra observations of NGC~7457, the X-ray point source populations of a low mass early-type galaxy
Mark B. Peacock, Stephen E. Zepf, Arunav Kundu +4
We present the X-ray point source population of NGC 7457 based on 124 ks of Chandra observations. Previous deep Chandra observations of low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in early-typ…
