Effects of Metallicity on High Mass X-ray Binary Formation
Sam Ponnada, Matthew Brorby, Philip Kaaret
The heating of the intergalactic medium in the early, metal-poor Universe may have been partly due to radiation from high mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs). Previous investigations on th…
Enhanced X-ray emission from candidate Lyman continuum emitting galaxies
Jesse Bluem, Philip Kaaret, Andrea Prestwich +1
X-ray binaries may have helped reionize the early Universe by enabling Lyman continuum escape. We analyzed a set of 8 local galaxies that are potential Lyman leaking galaxies, iden…
Resolving the X-ray emission from the Lyman continuum emitting galaxy Tol 1247-232
P. Kaaret, M. Brorby, L. Casella +1
Chandra observations of the nearby, Lyman-continuum (LyC) emitting galaxy Tol 1247-232 resolve the X-ray emission and show that it is dominated by a point-like source with a hard s…
X-rays from Green Pea Analogs
Matthew Brorby, Philip Kaaret
X-ray observations of two metal-deficient luminous compact galaxies (LCG) (SHOC~486 and SDSS J084220.94+115000.2) with properties similar to the so-called Green Pea galaxies were o…
Enhanced X-ray emission from Lyman Break Analogues and a Possible --SFR--Metallicity Plane
Matthew Brorby, Philip Kaaret, Andrea Prestwich +1
The source of energetic photons that heated and reionized the early Universe remains uncertain. Early galaxies had low metallicity and recent population synthesis calculations sugg…
Searching for X-ray sources in nearby late-type galaxies with low star formation rates
K. Chatterjee, P. Kaaret, M. Brorby +4
Late type non-starburst galaxies have been shown to contain X-ray emitting objects, some being ultraluminous X-ray sources. We report on XMM-Newton observations of 11 nearby, late-…
