Multiwavelength Observations of EXO 0748--676 -- II. Emission Line Behavior
K. J. Pearson, R. I. Hynes, D. Steeghs +6
We present optical and ultraviolet spectra, lightcurves, and Doppler tomograms of the low-mass X-ray binary EXO 0748-676. Using an extensive set of 15 emission line tomograms, we s…
The planet in M4: implications for planet formation in globular clusters
M. E. Beer, A. R. King, J. E. Pringle
We consider the formation and evolution of the planetary system PSR B1620-26 in the globular cluster M4. We propose that as M4 is a very-low metallicity environment the standard mo…
The Disk-Jet Connection in Microquasars and AGN
Mario Livio, J. E. Pringle, A. R. King
We propose a new model for the disk-jet connection in black hole x-ray transients and active galactic nuclei. In our model, the inner part of the accretion disk around the central…
A high velocity ionised outflow and XUV photosphere in the narrow emission line quasar PG1211+143
K. A. Pounds, J. N. Reeves, A. R. King +3
We report on the analysis of a ~60 ksec XMM observation of the bright, narrow emission line quasar PG 1211+143. Absorption lines are seen in both EPIC and RGS spectra corresponding…
AE Aquarii: how CVs descend from supersoft binaries
K. Schenker, A. R. King, U. Kolb +2
AE Aquarii is a propeller system. It has the shortest spin period among cataclysmic variables, and this is increasing on a 10^7 yr timescale. Its UV spectrum shows very strong carb…
The UV line spectrum of the soft X-ray transient XTE J1118+480: a CNO processed core exposed
C. A. Haswell, R. I. Hynes, A. R. King +1
We compare UV spectra of the recent soft X-ray transients XTE J1118+480 and XTE J1859+226. The emission line strengths in XTE J1118+480 strongly suggest that the accreting material…
