The XMM-Newton Slew Survey: a wide-angle survey in the 0.2 - 12 keV band

M. J. Freyberg, B. Altieri, D. Bermejo +4

The scientific data collected during slews of the XMM-Newton satellite are used to construct a slew survey catalogue. This comprises of the order of 4000 sources detected in the EP…

The XMM-Newton Slew Survey: towards the XMMSL1 catalogue

M. P. Esquej, B. Altieri, D. Bermejo +4

The XMM-Newton satellite is the most sensitive X-ray observatory flown to date due to the great collecting area of its mirrors coupled with the high quantum efficiency of the EPIC…

Status of the XMM-Newton cross-calibration with SASv6.5.0

M. Stuhlinger, B. Altieri, D. Baskill +16

Further achievements of the XMM-Newton cross-calibration - XMM internal as well as with other X-ray missions - are presented. We explain the major changes in the new version SASv6.…

Extended sources in the XMM-Newton slew survey

V. Lazaro, R. Saxton, A. M. Read +4

The low background, good spatial resolution and great sensitivity of the EPIC-pn camera on XMM-Newton give useful limits for the detection of extended sources even during the short…

The X-ray Evolution of Merging Galaxies

N. J. Brassington, A. M. Read, T. J. Ponman

From a Chandra survey of nine interacting galaxy systems the evolution of X-ray emission during the merger process has been investigated. From comparing Lx/Lk and Lfir/Lb it is fou…

Processing challenges in the XMM-Newton slew survey

R. Saxton, B. Altieri, A. Read +3

The great collecting area of the mirrors coupled with the high quantum efficiency of the EPIC detectors have made XMM-Newton the most sensitive X-ray observatory flown to date. Thi…
