The dynamical state of the Coma cluster with XMM-Newton
D. M. Neumann, D. H. Lumb, G. W. Pratt +1
We present in this paper a substructure and spectroimaging study of the Coma cluster of galaxies based on XMM-Newton data. XMM-Newton performed a mosaic of observations of Coma to…
XMM-Newton View of the Hubble Deep Field-North and Groth-Westphal Strip Regions
T. Miyaji, R. E. Griffiths, D. Lumb +2
We report the progress on our analysis of two deep XMM observations in the areas of Hubble Deep Field-North and the Groth-Westphal Strip field. We present the source detection meth…
Strongly absorbed quiescent X-ray emission from the X-ray transient XTE J0421+56 (CI Cam) observed with XMM-Newton
L. Boirin, A. N. Parmar, T. Oosterbroek +3
We have observed the X-ray transient XTE J0421+56 in quiescence with XMM-Newton. The observed spectrum is highly unusual being dominated by an emission feature at ~6.5 keV. The spe…
XMM-Newton observation of the distant (z=0.6) galaxy cluster RX J1120.1+4318
M. Arnaud, S. Majerowicz, D. Lumb +12
We report on a 20 ksec XMM observation of the distant cluster RXJ1120.1+4318, discovered at z=0.6 in the SHARC survey. The cluster has a regular spherical morphology, suggesting it…
In-orbit calibration of vignetting in XMM-Newton EPIC
D. H. Lumb
We briefly describe the in orbit measurements of the mirror vignetting, using observations of SNR G21.5-09. The instrument features which complicate these measurements are briefly…
XMM-Newton EPIC in orbit background
D. H. Lumb
We briefly describe the methods used in compiling a set of high galactic latitude background data. The characteristics and limitations of the data which affect their use as a templ…
XMM-Newton calibration - an overview
D. H. Lumb
This paper introduces the articles that describe detailed aspects of the XMM-Newton calibration. The unique calibration issues of XMM-Newton are highlighted. The original calibrati…
Timing study of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125
Silvia Zane, Frank Haberl, Mark Cropper +4
We present a combined analysis of XMM-Newton, Chandra and Rosat observations of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125, spanning a total period of \sim 7 years. We develop a max…

Discovery of narrow X-ray absorption features from the dipping low-mass X-ray binary X 1624-490 with XMM-Newton
A. N. Parmar, T. Oosterbroek, L. Boirin +1
We report the discovery of narrow X-ray absorption features from the dipping low-mass X-ray binary X 1624-490 during an XMM-Newton observation in 2001 February. The features are id…
XMM-Newton GT and AO-1 observations of SHARC galaxy clusters : RX J1120.1+4318 and RX J0256.5+0006
Sebastien Majerowicz, Monique Arnaud, David Lumb +1
We present the follow-up of two galaxy clusters from the Bright and Southern SHARC surveys observed with the XMM-Newton satellite. We studied the galaxy cluster RX J1120.1+4318 whi…
Discovery of complex narrow X-ray absorption features from the low-mass X-ray binary GX13+1 with XMM-Newton
L. Sidoli, A. N. Parmar, T. Oosterbroek +1
We report the detection of a complex of narrow X-ray absorption features from the low-mass X-ray binary GX13+1 during 3 XMM-Newton observations in 2000 March and April. The feature…
Strongly absorbed quiescent X-ray emission from the X-ray transient XTE J0421+56
L. Boirin, A. N. Parmar, D. Lumb +2
We have observed the soft X-ray transient XTE J0421+56 in quiescence with XMM-Newton. The observed spectrum is highly unusual being dominated by a broad feature at 6.5 keV and can…
