The location and kinematics of the coronal-line emitting regions in AGN
J. R. Mullaney, M. J. Ward, C. Done +2
We use the photoionisation code Cloudy to determine both the location and the kinematics of the optical forbidden, high ionisation line (hereafter, FHIL) emitting gas in the narrow…
The XMM-Newton Serendipitous Survey V. Optical identification of the XMM-Newton Medium sensitivity Survey (XMS)
X. Barcons, F. J. Carrera, M. T. Ceballos +53
We present the XMM-Newton Medium sensitivity Survey (XMS), including a total of 318 X-ray sources found among the serendipitous content of 25 XMM-Newton target fields. The XMS comp…
The Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission
N. Gehrels, G Chincarini, P. Giommi +12
The Swift mission, scheduled for launch in early 2004, is a multiwavelength observatory for gamma-ray burst (GRB) astronomy. It is the first-of-its-kind autonomous rapid-slewing sa…
Chandra observations of five ultraluminous X-ray sources in nearby galaxies
T. P. Roberts, R. S. Warwick, M. J. Ward +1
We report the results of a programme of dual-epoch Chandra ACIS-S observations of five ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) in nearby spiral galaxies. All five ULXs are detected as u…
An XMM-Newton view of M101: I. The luminous X-ray source population
L. P. Jenkins, T. P. Roberts, R. S. Warwick +2
We present the first results of an XMM-Newton EPIC observation of the luminous X-ray source population in the supergiant spiral galaxy M101. We have studied the properties of the f…
A Massive X-Ray Outflow from the Quasar PDS 456
James Reeves, Paul O'Brien, Martin Ward
We report on XMM-Newton spectroscopic observations of the luminous, radio-quiet quasar PDS 456. The hard X-ray spectrum of PDS 456 shows a deep absorption trough (constituting 50%…
