The Vela X-1 pulse-averaged spectrum as observed by BeppoSAX
M. Orlandini, D. Dal Fiume, F. Frontera +7
We report on the 20 ksec observation of Vela X-1 performed by BeppoSAX on 1996 July 14 during its Science Verification Phase. We observed the source in two intensity states, charac…
BeppoSAX/PDS Observation of Vela X-1
M. Orlandini, D. Dal Fiume, L. Nicastro +2
Vela X-1 has been observed by the Italian/Dutch X-ray satellite BeppoSAX during its Science Verification Phase. During the ~ 50 ksec observation (orbital phases 0.27-0.34) two diff…
The broad-band X-ray spectrum of the Cas A supernova remnant as seen by the BeppoSAX observatory
F. Favata, J. Vink, D. Dal Fiume +6
We present a broad band X-ray observation of the Cas A supernova remnant, obtained with the 4 narrow field instruments on board the BeppoSAX satellite. The X-ray spectrum thus obta…
First Results from the MECS on board BeppoSAX
S. Molendi, L. Chiappetti, G. Cusumano +12
In this contribution we discuss briefly a few calibration items relevant to the data analysis and present some preliminary scientific results. The discussion on instrumental topics…
