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…

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-…

Ultra-Luminous X-ray Sources in Haro 11 and the Role of X-ray Binaries in Feedback in Lyman-alpha Emitting Galaxies

A. H. Prestwich, F. Jackson, P. Kaaret +4

Lyman Break Analogs (LBA) are local proxies of high-redshift Lyman Break Galaxies (LBG). Studies of nearby starbursts have shown that Lyman continuum and line emission are absorbed…

Transition of an X-ray binary to the hard ultraluminous state in the blue compact dwarf galaxy VII Zw 403

Matthew Brorby, Philip Kaaret, Hua Feng

We examine the X-ray spectra of VII Zw 403, a nearby low-metallicity blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy. The galaxy has been observed to contain an X-ray source, likely a high mass X-…
