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 NGC4839 group falling into the Coma cluster observed by XMM-Newton

D. M. Neumann, M. Arnaud, R. Gastaud +7

We present here the first analysis of the XMM Newton EPIC-MOS data of the galaxy group around NGC4839, which lies at a projected distance to the Coma cluster center of 1.6Mpc. In o…
