Chandra Observations of the Eastern Limb of the Vela Supernova Remnant
P. P. Plucinsky, R. K Smith, R. J. Edgar +5
We present results from two Chandra/ACIS observations of the so-called Vela ``Bullet D'' region on the eastern limb of the Vela supernova remnant. The Bullet D region is a bright X…
The Low-Energy Spectral Response of the ACIS CCDs
Paul P. Plucinsky, Richard J. Edgar, Shanil N. Virani +2
The flight calibration of the spectral response of the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) below 1.5 keV is difficult because of the lack of strong lines in the calibration so…
Modeling Charge Transfer Inefficiency in the Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer
L. K. Townsley, P. S. Broos, J. A. Nousek +1
The front-illuminated (FI) CCDs in the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on the Chandra X-ray Observatory (Chandra) were damaged in the extreme environment of the Earth's ra…
Simulating CCDs for the Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer
L. K. Townsley, P. S. Broos, G. Chartas +3
We have implemented a Monte Carlo algorithm to model and predict the response of various kinds of CCDs to X-ray photons and minimally-ionizing particles and have applied this model…
The Chandra Deep Field North Survey. V. 1 Ms Source Catalogs
W. N. Brandt, D. M. Alexander, A. E. Hornschemeier +13
An extremely deep X-ray survey (about 1 Ms) of the Hubble Deep Field North and its environs (about 450 arcmin^2) has been performed with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer on bo…
The Chandra Deep Survey of the Hubble Deep Field North Area. IV. An Ultradeep Image of the HDF-N
W. N. Brandt, A. E. Hornschemeier, D. M. Alexander +7
We present results from a 479.7 ks Chandra exposure of the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) and its immediate vicinity. In our X-ray image, the deepest ever reported with a 0.5-2.0…
