Opening the 100-Year Window for Time Domain Astronomy

Jonathan Grindlay, Sumin Tang, Edward Los +1

The large-scale surveys such as PTF, CRTS and Pan-STARRS-1 that have emerged within the past 5 years or so employ digital databases and modern analysis tools to accentuate research…

The accretion disc, jets and environment of the intermediate mass black hole candidate ESO 243-49 HLX-1

N. A. Webb, D. Barret, V. Braito +13

The Ultra Luminous X-ray (ULX) source HLX-1 in the galaxy ESO 243-49 has an observed maximum unabsorbed X-ray luminosity of 1.3e42 erg/s (0.2-10.0 keV). From the conservative assum…

Investigating slim disk solutions for HLX-1 in ESO 243-49

O. Godet, B. Plazolles, T. Kawaguchi +7

The hyper luminous X-ray source HLX-1 in the galaxy ESO 243-49, currently the best intermediate mass black hole candidate, displays spectral transitions similar to those observed i…

Neutron star atmosphere composition: the quiescent, low-mass X-ray binary in the globular cluster M28

Mathieu Servillat, C. O. Heinke, W. C. G. Ho +4

Using deep Chandra observations of the globular cluster M28, we study the quiescent X-ray emission of a neutron star in a low-mass X-ray binary in order to constrain the chemical c…

The ChaMPlane bright X-ray sources - Galactic longitudes l = 2-358 deg

Maureen van den Berg, Kyle Penner, JaeSub Hong +4

The Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey aims to constrain the Galactic population of mainly accretion-powered, but also coronal, low-luminosity X-ray sources (Lx <~ 1e…
