Diffuse Thermal X-Ray Emission in the Core of the Young Massive Cluster Westerlund 1
P. J. Kavanagh, L. Norci, E. J. A. Meurs
We present an analysis of the diffuse hard X-ray emission in the core of the young massive Galactic cluster Westerlund 1 based on a 48 ks XMM-Newton observation. Chandra results fo…
The Extreme LBV Star GR290 (Romano's Star) in M33. Optical Spectrophotometric Monitoring
V. F. Polcaro, R. F. Viotti, C. Rossi +3
We study the long term, S Dor-type variability and the present hot phase of the LBV star GR290 (Romano's Star) in M33 in order to investigate possible links between the LBV and WNL…
Non variability of intervening absorbers observed in the UVES spectra of the "naked-eye" GRB080319
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, P. Goldoni +7
The aim of this paper is to investigate the properties of the intervening absorbers lying along the line of sight of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 080319B through the analysis of its optic…
UVES/VLT high resolution absorption spectroscopy of the GRB080330 afterglow: a study of the GRB host galaxy and intervening absorbers
V. D'Elia, F. Fiore, R. Perna +13
We study the Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) environment and intervening absorbers by analyzing the optical absorption features produced by gas surrounding the GRB or along its line of sight…
Toward Understanding The B[e] Phenomenon: III. Properties of the optical counterpart of IRAS 00470+6429
A. S. Miroshnichenko, E. L. Chentsov, V. G. Klochkova +19
FS CMa type stars are a group of Galactic objects with the B[e] phenomenon. They exhibit strong emission-line spectra and infrared excesses, which are most likely due to recently f…
Probing the complex environments of GRB host galaxies and intervening systems: high resolution spectroscopy of GRB050922C
S. Piranomonte, P. A. Ward, F. Fiore +20
The aim of this paper is to investigate the environment of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) and the interstellar matter of their host galaxies. We use to this purpose high resolution spectr…
