VLT/UVES and FORS2 spectroscopy of the GRB 081008 afterglow
V. D'Elia, S. Campana, S. Covino +3
We study the gamma-ray burst GRB 081008 environment by analysing the spectra of its optical afterglow. UVES high resolution spectroscopy of GRB 081008 was secured ~5 hr after the S…
UVES and FORS2 spectroscopy of GRB081008
V. D'Elia, S. Campana, S. Covino +3
We study the GRB 081008 environment with simultaneous high- and low-resolution spectroscopy using UVES and FORS2 data acquired ~5 hr after the Swift trigger. The interstellar mediu…
XMM-Newton observations of the supergiant fast X-ray transients XTEJ1739-302, IGRJ08408-4503 and IGRJ18410-0535
E. Bozzo, C. Ferrigno, J. C. Leyder +5
We report here on the XMM-Newton observations of the three supergiant fast X-ray transients (SFXT) XTE J1739-302, IGRJ08408-4503, and IGRJ18410-0535. For the latter source we only…
Neutron star observations with WFXT
Sergio Campana
The Wide-Field X-ray Telescope (WFXT) is a proposed NASA mission dedicated to performing surveys of the sky in the soft X-ray band (0.3-6 keV). The key characteristics of this miss…
High energy emission from massive stars: the precocious X-Ray recovery of Eta Carinae after January 2009 minimum
Elena Pian, Sergio Campana, Guido Chincarini +7
We observed the massive binary stellar system of Eta Carinae in the 0.3-10 keV energy range with the X-ray Telescope onboard the Swift satellite during the period 15 December 2008…
The Very Local Universe in X-rays
A. Ptak, E. Feigelson, Y. -H. Chu +25
While the exceptional sensitivity of Chandra and XMM-Newton has resulted in revolutionary studies of the Galactic neighborhood in the soft (<10 keV) X-ray band, there are many open…
