A Focused, Hard X-ray Look at Arp 299 with NuSTAR
A. Ptak, A. Hornschemeier, A. Zezas +19
We report on simultaneous observations of the local starburst system Arp 299 with NuSTAR and Chandra, which provides the first resolved images of this galaxy up to energies of ~ 45…
Spatially Resolving a Starburst Galaxy at Hard X-ray Energies: NuSTAR, Chandra, AND VLBA Observations of NGC 253
Daniel R. Wik, Bret D. Lehmer, Ann E. Hornschemeier +16
Prior to the launch of NuSTAR, it was not feasible to spatially resolve the hard (E > 10 keV) emission from galaxies beyond the Local Group. The combined NuSTAR dataset, comprised…
The X-ray Luminosity Functions of Field Low Mass X-ray Binaries in Early-Type Galaxies: Evidence for a Stellar Age Dependence
B. D Lehmer, M. Berkeley, A. Zezas +11
We present direct constraints on how the formation of low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) populations in galactic fields depends on stellar age. In this pilot study, we utilize Chandra an…
Extra-Nuclear Starbursts: Young Luminous Hinge Clumps in Interacting Galaxies
Beverly J. Smith, Roberto Soria, Curtis Struck +3
Hinge clumps are luminous knots of star formation near the base of tidal features in some interacting galaxies. We use archival Hubble Space Telescope UV/optical/IR images and Chan…
