Rapid onset of a Comptonisation zone in the repeating tidal disruption event XMMSL2 J140446.9-251135
R. D. Saxton, T. Wevers, S. van Velzen +11
We report here on observations of a tidal disruption event, XMMSL2 J1404-2511, discovered in an XMM-Newton slew, in a quiescent galaxy at z=0.043. X-ray monitoring covered the epoc…
Highly variable AGN from the XMM-Newton Slew Survey
N. L. Strotjohann, R. D. Saxton, R. L. C. Starling +4
We investigate the properties of a variability-selected complete sample of AGN in order to identify the mechanisms which cause large amplitude X-ray variability on time scales of y…
EXTraS discovery of an 1.2-s X-ray pulsar in M 31
P. Esposito, G. L. Israel, A. Belfiore +13
During a search for coherent signals in the X-ray archival data of XMM-Newton, we discovered a modulation at 1.2 s in 3XMM J004301.4+413017 (3X J0043), a source lying in the direct…
An X-ray and UV flare from the galaxy XMMSL1 J061927.1-655311
R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, S. Komossa +6
New high variability extragalactic sources may be identified by comparing the flux of sources seen in the XMM-Newton Slew Survey with detections and upper limits from the ROSAT All…
A high Eddington-ratio, true Seyfert 2 galaxy candidate: implications for broad-line-region models
G. Miniutti, R. D. Saxton, P. M. Rodriguez-Pascual +5
A bright, soft X-ray source was detected on 2010 July 14 during an XMM--Newton slew at a position consistent with the galaxy GSN 069 (z=0.018). Previous ROSAT observations failed t…
The XMM-Newton slew survey in the 2-10 keV band
R. S. Warwick, R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read
The XMM-Newton Slew Survey (XSS) covers a significant fraction of the sky in a broad X-ray bandpass. Although shallow by contemporary standards, in the `classical' 2-10 keV band of…
