X-ray Spectroscopy of the 2006 Outburst of RS Oph
Thomas Nelson, Marina Orio, Joseph P. Cassinelli +3
We present the X-ray grating spectra of the recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi during its 2006 outburst, obtained with the XMM-Newton and Chandra observatories. Two weeks after optical max…
Bowen blend echo-tomography of low mass X-ray binaries
T. Muñoz-Darias, I. G. Martinez-Pais, J. Casares +7
We present simultaneous high time resolution (1-10 Hz) X-ray and optical observations of the persistent LMXBs Sco X-1 and V801 Ara(=4U 1636-536). In the case of Sco X-1 we find tha…
The metallicity extremes of the Sagittarius dSph using SALT spectroscopy of PNe
A. Kniazev, A. Zijlstra, E. Grebel +10
In this work we present the first spectroscopic results obtained with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) telescope during its perfomance-verification phase. We find that t…
The polar ring galaxy AM1934-563 revisited
N. Brosch, A. Kniazev, D. Buckley +8
We report long-slit spectroscopic observations of the dust-lane polar-ring galaxy AM1934-563 obtained with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) during its performance-verifi…
FUSE Observations of a Full Orbit of Hercules X-1: Signatures of Disk, Star, and Wind
Bram Boroson, Saeqa Dil Vrtilek, John C. Raymond +1
We observed an entire 1.7 day orbit of the X-ray binary Hercules X-1 with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE). Changes in the O VI 1032,1037 line profiles through ecl…
