The European Photon Imaging Camera on XMM-Newton: The MOS Cameras
M. J. L. Turner, A. Abbey, M. Arnaud
The EPIC focal plane imaging spectrometers on XMM-Newton use CCDs to record the images and spectra of celestial X-ray sources focused by the three X-ray mirrors. There is one camer…
The first broad-band X-ray images and spectra of the 30 Doradus region in the LMC
K. Dennerl, F. Haberl, B. Aschenbach +25
We present the XMM-Newton first light image, taken in January 2000 with the EPIC pn camera during the instrument's commissioning phase, when XMM-Newton was pointing towards the Lar…
AGN in the XMM-Newton first-light image as probes for the interstellar medium in the LMC
F. Haberl, K. Dennerl, M. D. Filipovic +3
The XMM-Newton first-light image revealed X-ray point sources which show heavily absorbed power-law spectra. The spectral indices and the probable identification of a radio counter…
Detection of an X-ray periodicity in the Narrow-line Seyfert 1 Galaxy Mrk 766 with XMM-Newton
Th. Boller, R. Keil, J. Truemper +3
We have analyzed the timing properties of the Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 766 observed with XMM-Newton during the PV phase. The source intensity changes by a factor of 1.3 ove…
XMM-Newton First-Light Observations of the Hickson Galaxy Group 16
M. J. L. Turner, J. N. Reeves, T. J. Ponman +7
This paper presents the XMM-Newton first-light observations of the Hickson-16 compact group of galaxies. Groups are possibly the oldest large-scale structures in the Universe, pre-…
X-Rays from the Nearby Solitary Millisecond Pulsar PSR J0030+0451 - the Final ROSAT Observations
Werner Becker, Joachim Tr"umper, Andrea N. Lommen +1
We report on X-ray observations of the solitary 4.8 ms pulsar PSR J0030+0451. The pulsar was one of the last targets observed in DEC-98 by the ROSAT PSPC. X-ray pulses are detected…
The Northern ROSAT All-Sky (NORAS) Galaxy Cluster Survey I: X-ray Properties of Clusters Detected as Extended X-ray Sources
H. Boehringer, W. Voges, J. P. Huchra +11
In the construction of an X-ray selected sample of galaxy clusters for cosmological studies, we have assembled a sample of 495 X-ray sources found to show extended X-ray emission i…
