Gravitationally redshifted absorption lines in the X-ray burst spectra of a neutron star
J. Cottam, F. Paerels, M. Mendez
The fundamental properties of neutron stars provide a direct test of the equation of state of cold nuclear matter, a relationship between pressure and density that is determined by…
XMM-Newton confirmation of Soft X-ray excess emission in clusters of galaxies - the discovery of O VII emission from an extended warm baryonic component
J. S. Kaastra, R. Lieu, T. Tamura +2
We investigate a sample of 14 clusters of galaxies observed with XMM-Newton in a search for soft X-ray excess emission. In five of these clusters a significant soft excess is evide…
High Resolution X-ray Spectroscopic Constraints on Cooling-Flow Models for Clusters of Galaxies
J. R. Peterson, S. M. Kahn, F. B. S. Paerels +5
We present high resolution X-ray spectra of 14 putative cooling-flow clusters of galaxies obtained with the Reflection Grating Spectrometer on XMM-Newton. The clusters in the sampl…
Soft X-ray Spectra of Seyfert 2 Galaxies
Masao Sako, Ali Kinkhabwala, Steven M. Kahn +6
High resolution spectroscopic observations of Seyfert galaxies with Chandra and XMM-Newton allows us to study the detailed ionization and thermal structures of the X-ray absorbing/…
Spectral and Timing Properties of the Low-mass X-ray Binary 4U 0614+09 with XMM-Newton
M. Mendez, Jean Cottam, F. Paerels
4U 0614+09 is a low-mass X-ray binary with a weakly magnetized neutron star primary. It shows variability on time scales that range from years down to ~0.8 milliseconds. Before the…
Soft X-ray Spectroscopy of NGC 1068 with XMM-Newton RGS and Chandra LETGS
A. Kinkhabwala, M. Sako, E. Behar +7
We present high-resolution soft-X-ray spectra of the prototypical Seyfert 2 galaxy, NGC 1068, taken with XMM-Newton RGS and Chandra LETGS. Its rich emission-line spectrum is domina…
