AX J1910.7+0917: the slowest X-ray pulsar

L. Sidoli, G. L. Israel, P. Esposito +2

Pulsations from the high mass X-ray binary AXJ1910.7+0917 were discovered during Chandra observations performed in 2011 (Israel et al. 2016). We report here more details on this di…

Thermal disc emission from a rotating black hole: X-ray polarization signatures

M. Dovciak, F. Muleri, R. W. Goosmann +2

Thermal emission from the accretion disc around a black hole can be polarized, due to Thomson scattering in a disc atmosphere. In Newtonian space, the polarization angle must be ei…

XMM-Newton observations of the low-mass X-ray binary XB1832-330 in the galactic globular cluster NGC 6652

L. Sidoli, N. La Palombara, T. Oosterbroek +1

We report on two XMM-Newton observations performed in 2006 of the luminous low-mass X-ray binary XB1832-330 which is located in the galactic globular cluster NGC 6652 and is probab…

Simbol-X background simulation activities

R. Chipaux, U. Briel, A. Bulgarelli +6

Using the Geant4 toolkit, a Monte-Carlo code to simulate the detector background of the Simbol-X focal plane instrument has been developed with the aim to optimize the design of th…

The slope of the GRB Variability/Peak Luminosity Correlation

C. Guidorzi, F. Frontera, E. Montanari +4

From a sample of 32 GRBs with known redshift (Guidorzi et al. 2005) and then a sample of 551 BATSE GRBs with derived pseudo-redshift (Guidorzi 2005), the time variability/peak lumi…

The HI fine structure of HVC187 near NGC3783, gas in the leading bridge of the Magellanic System

B. P. Wakker, B. D. Savage, T. A. Oosterloo +1

We present an analysis of high-resolution HI data of one of the cores of HVC187 Wakker & van Woerden 1991), HVC287+22+240. Structure is present down to the lowest-measurable scale…
