XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of the M31 globular cluster black hole candidate XB135: a heavyweight contender cut down to size
R. Barnard, F. Primini, M. R. Garcia +2
CXOM31 J004252.030+413107.87 is one of the brightest X-ray sources within the D_25 region of M31, and associated with a globular cluster (GC) known as B135; we therefore call this…
The PLATO 2.0 Mission
H. Rauer, C. Catala, C. Aerts +159
PLATO 2.0 has recently been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24). Providing accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers, it…
Supernova remnants and candidates detected in the XMM-Newton M31 large survey
Manami Sasaki, Wolfgang Pietsch, Frank Haberl +5
We present the analysis of supernova remnants (SNRs) and candidates in M31 identified in the XMM-Newton large programme survey of M31. SNRs are among the bright X-ray sources in a…
PIRATE: A Remotely-Operable Telescope Facility for Research and Education
S. Holmes, U. Kolb, C. A. Haswell +6
We introduce PIRATE, a new remotely-operable telescope facility for use in research and education, constructed from 'off-the-shelf' hardware, operated by The Open University. We fo…
The deep XMM-Newton Survey of M 31
H. Stiele, W. Pietsch, F. Haberl +5
Aims. M 31 has been completely imaged for the first time obtaining a luminosity lower limit ~10^35 erg s-1 in the 0.2-4.5 keV band. Our XMM-Newton EPIC survey combines archival obs…
Is the common envelope ejection efficiency a function of the binary parameters?
P. J. Davis, U. Kolb, C. Knigge
We reconstruct the common envelope (CE) phase for the current sample of observed white dwarf-main sequence post-common envelope binaries (PCEBs). We apply multi-regression analysis…
