The Optical, Ultraviolet, and X-ray Structure of the Quasar HE 0435-1223
Jeffrey A. Blackburne, Christopher S. Kochanek, Bin Chen +2
Microlensing has proven an effective probe of the structure of the innermost regions of quasars, and an important test of accretion disk models. We present light curves of the lens…
The Role of Inverse Compton Scattering in Solar Coronal Hard X-ray and Gamma-ray Sources
Bin Chen, Timothy S. Bastian
Coronal hard X-ray (HXR) and continuum gamma-ray sources associated with the impulsive phase of solar flares have been the subject of renewed interest in recent years. They have be…
Discovery of Energy Dependent X-ray Microlensing in Q2237+0305
Bin Chen, Xinyu Dai, Christopher S. Kochanek +3
We present our long term Chandra X-ray monitoring data for the gravitationally lensed quasar Q2237+0305 with 20 epochs spanning 10 years. We easily detect microlensing variability…
The Gravitational Lens Equation for Embedded Lenses; Magnification and Ellipticity
Bin Chen, Ronald Kantowski, Xinyu Dai
We give the lens equation for light deflections caused by point mass condensations in an otherwise spatially homogeneous and flat universe. We assume the signal from a distant sour…
Spatially and Spectrally Resolved Observations of a Zebra Pattern in Solar Decimetric Radio Burst
Bin Chen, Timothy S. Bastian, Dale E. Gary +1
We present the first interferometric observation of a zebra-pattern radio burst with simultaneous high spectral (~ 1 MHz) and high time (20 ms) resolution. The Frequency-Agile Sola…
