The ASTRO-H Mission

Tadayuki Takahashi, Kazuhisa Mitsuda, Richard Kelley +174

The joint JAXA/NASA ASTRO-H mission is the sixth in a series of highly successful X-ray missions initiated by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS). ASTRO-H will…

K-shell photoionization of Na-like to Cl-like ions of Mg, Si, S, Ar, and Ca

M. C. Witthoeft, J. García, T. R. Kallman +4

We present -matrix calculations of photoabsorption and photoionization cross sections across the K-edge of Mg, Si, S, Ar, and Ca ions with more than 10 electrons. The calculatio…

Modeling of Photoionized Plasmas

T. R. Kallman

In this paper I review the motivation and current status of modeling of plasmas exposed to strong radiation fields, as it applies to the study of cosmic X-ray sources. This include…

Atomic data and spectral model for Fe III

Manuel A. Bautista, Connor P. Ballance, Pascal Quinet

We present new atomic data (radiative transitions rates and collision strengths) from large scale calculations and a non-LTE spectral model for Fe III. This model is in very good a…

X-ray reflected spectra from accretion disk models. I. Constant density atmospheres

Javier Garcia, Timothy Kallman

We present new models for illuminated accretion disks, their structure and reprocessed emission. We consider the effects of incident X-rays on the surface of an accretion disk by s…

A Chandra survey of fluorescence Fe lines in X-ray Binaries at high resolution

J. M. Torrejon, N. S. Schulz, M. A. Nowak +1

In this paper we present a comprehensive survey of 41 X-ray binaries (10 HMXBs and 31 LMXBs) with Chandra, with specific emphasis on the Fe K region and the narrow Fe Kalpha line,…
