Old Galactic novae in the eROSITA All Sky Survey

Gloria Sala, Frank Haberl, Axel Schwope +4

Nova explosions occur on accreting white dwarfs. A thermonuclear runaway in the H-rich accreted envelope causes its ejection without destroying the white dwarf, and an increase in…

Significant reflection and absorption effects in the X-ray emission of the Intermediate Polar IGR J17195-4100

Elif Şafak, Şölen Balman, Gloria Sala

X-ray emission is from shock-heated plasma in magnetic cataclysmic variables, and is processed by absorption and scattering before reaching the observer. We investigate these effec…

The supersoft X-ray source in V5116 Sgr I. The high resolution spectra

G. Sala, J. U. Ness, M. Hernanz +1

Classical novae occur on the surface of an accreting white dwarf in a binary system. After ejection of a fraction of the envelope and when the expanding shell becomes optically thi…

Supersoft X-rays reveal a classical nova in the M 31 globular cluster Bol 126

M. Henze, W. Pietsch, F. Haberl +17

[Abridged] Classical novae (CNe) represent the main class of supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs) in the central region of our neighbouring galaxy M 31. Only three confirmed novae and th…

Constraints on the mass and radius of the accreting neutron star in the Rapid Burster

Gloria Sala, Frank Haberl, Jordi Jose +4

The Rapid Burster (MXB 1730-335) is a unique object, showing both type I and type II X-ray bursts. A type I burst of the Rapid Burster was observed with Swift/XRT on 2009 March 5,…

CXOM31 J004253.1+411422: The first ultra-luminous X-ray transient in M 31

A. Kaur, M. Henze, F. Haberl +6

We seek clarification of the nature of X-ray sources detected in M 31. Here we focus on CXOM31 J004253.1+411422, the brightness of which suggests that it belongs to the class of ul…
