Are WC9 Wolf-Rayet stars in colliding-wind binaries?
P. M. Williams, K. A. van der Hucht, G. Rauw
We present results from a spectroscopic search for massive companions to dust-making Galactic WC9 stars as a step to testing the paradigm that dust formation in these systems requi…
X-ray powerful diagnostics for highly-ionized plasmas: He-like ions
D. Porquet, R. Mewe, J. S. Kaastra +2
The calculations of the ratios of the Helium-like ion X-ray lines from C V to Si XIII are revisited in order to apply the results to density, temperature and ionization process dia…
An unresolved X-ray source inside the supernova remnant RCW 86
Jacco Vink, Fabrizio Bocchino, Francesco Damiani +1
We report on the discovery of an unresolved X-ray source inside the supernova remnant G315.4-2.3 (RCW 86). The source is located 7' to the Southwest of the geometrical centre and m…
Stochastic particle acceleration at shocks in the presence of braided magnetic fields
J. G. Kirk, P. Duffy, Y. A. Gallant
The theory of diffusive acceleration of energetic particles at shock fronts assumes charged particles undergo spatial diffusion in a uniform magnetic field. If, however, the magnet…
