Shrinking the Braneworld: Black Hole in a Globular Cluster
Oleg Y. Gnedin, Thomas J. Maccarone, Dimitrios Psaltis +1
Large extra dimensions have been proposed as a possible solution to the hierarchy problem in physics. One of the suggested models, the RS2 braneworld model, makes a prediction that…
Deep Chandra Monitoring Observations of NGC 4278: Catalog of Source Properties
N. J. Brassington, G. Fabbiano, D. -W. Kim +11
We present the properties of the discrete X-ray sources detected in our monitoring program of the globular cluster (GC) rich elliptical galaxy, NGC 4278, observed with Chandra ACIS…
Comparing GC and Field LMXBs in Elliptical Galaxies with deep Chandra and Hubble data
D. -W. Kim, G. Fabbiano, N. J. Brassington +15
(abridged) We present a statistical study of the low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) populations of three nearby, old elliptical galaxies: NGC 3379, NGC 4278, and NGC 4697. With a cumulat…
Transient Low-Mass X-Ray Binary Populations in Elliptical Galaxies NGC 3379 and NGC 4278
T. Fragos, V. Kalogera, B. Willems +12
We propose a physically motivated and self-consistent prescription for the modeling of transient neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) properties, such as duty cycle (DC),…
WFCAM Survey of M31 Globular Clusters: Low Mass X-ray Binaries
Mark B. Peacock, Thomas J. Maccarone, Christopher Z. Waters +4
We investigate the relationship between Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) and globular clusters (GCs) using UKIRT observations of M31 and existing Chandra, XMM-Newton, and ROSAT cata…
Discovery of Hot Gas in Outflow in NGC3379
G. Trinchieri, S. Pellegrini, G. Fabbiano +10
We report the discovery of a faint (L_x ~ 4 10^37 erg/s, 0.5-2 keV), out-flowing gaseous hot interstellar medium (ISM) in NGC 3379. This represents the lowest X-ray luminosity ever…
