Increasing the Discovery Space in Astrophysics - A Collation of Six Submitted White Papers
G. Fabbiano, M. Elvis, A. Accomazzi +46
We write in response to the call from the 2020 Decadal Survey to submit white papers illustrating the most pressing scientific questions in astrophysics for the coming decade. We p…
Supersoft X-ray sources identified with Be binaries in the Magellanic Clouds
V. Cracco, M. Orio, S. Ciroi +3
We investigated four luminous supersoft X-ray sources (SSS) in the Magellanic Clouds suspected to have optical counterparts of Be spectral type. If the origin of the X-rays is in a…
CXO J004318.8+412016, a steady supersoft X-ray source in M 31
M. Orio, G. J. M. Luna, R. Kotulla +14
We obtained an optical spectrum of a star we identify as the optical counterpart of the M31 Chandra source CXO J004318.8+412016, because of prominent emission lines of the Balmer s…
Chemical and physical parameters from X-ray high resolution spectra of the Galactic nova V959 Mon
U. Peretz, M. Orio, E. Behar +5
Two observations of V959 Mon, done using the Chandra X-ray gratings during the late outburst phases (2012 September and December), offer extraordinary insight into the physics and…
A precessing molecular jet signaling an obscured, growing supermassive black hole in NGC1377?
S. Aalto, F. Costagliola, S. Muller +11
With high resolution (0."25 x 0."18) ALMA CO 3-2 observations of the nearby (D=21 Mpc, 1"=102 pc), extremely radio-quiet galaxy NGC1377, we have discovered a high-velocity, very co…
Thomson Scattering and Collisional Ionization in the X-rays Grating Spectra of the Recurrent Nova U Scorpii
M. Orio, E. Behar, J. Gallagher +3
We present a Chandra observation of the recurrent nova U Scorpii, done with the HRC-S detector and the LETG grating on day 18 after the observed visual maximum of 2010, and compare…
