Modeling X-ray binary evolution in normal galaxies: Insights from SINGS

P. Tzanavaris, T. Fragos, M. Tremmel +7

We present the largest-scale comparison to date between observed extragalactic X-ray binary (XRB) populations and theoretical models of their production. We construct observational…

Modeling the Redshift Evolution of the Normal Galaxy X-ray Luminosity Function

M. Tremmel, T. Fragos, B. D. Lehmer +9

Emission from X-ray binaries (XRBs) is a major component of the total X-ray luminosity of normal galaxies, so X-ray studies of high redshift galaxies allow us to probe the formatio…

X-ray Binary Evolution Across Cosmic Time

Tassos Fragos, Bret Lehmer, Michael Tremmel +8

High redshift galaxies permit the study of the formation and evolution of X-ray binary populations on cosmological timescales, probing a wide range of metallicities and star-format…

Deep UV Luminosity Functions at the Infall Region of the Coma Cluster

D. M. Hammer, A. E. Hornschemeier, S. Salim +5

We have used deep GALEX observations at the infall region of the Coma cluster to measure the faintest UV luminosity functions (LFs) presented for a rich galaxy cluster thus far. Th…

Investigating the nuclear activity of barred spiral galaxies: the case of NGC 1672

L. P. Jenkins, W. N. Brandt, E. J. M. Colbert +7

We have performed an X-ray study of the nearby barred spiral galaxy NGC1672, primarily to ascertain the effect of the bar on its nuclear activity. We use both Chandra and XMM-Newto…

A Chandra Perspective On Galaxy-Wide X-ray Binary Emission And Its Correlation With Star Formation Rate And Stellar Mass: New Results From Luminous Infrared Galaxies

B. D. Lehmer, D. M. Alexander, F. E. Bauer +5

We present new Chandra observations that complete a sample of seventeen (17) luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) with D < 60 Mpc and low Galactic column densities of N_H < 5 X 10^20…
