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…
