X-ray supernova remnants in nearby galaxies
Ioanna Leonidaki, Andreas Zezas, Panayotis Boumis
We present the initial results from a study of the SNR population in a sample of six nearby galaxies (NGC 2403, NGC 4214, NGC 4449, NGC 5204, NGC 3077, NGC 4395) based on Chandra a…
Deep Chandra Monitoring Observations of NGC 3379: Catalog of Source Properties
N. J. Brassington, G. Fabbiano, D. -W. Kim +11
We present the properties of the discrete X-ray sources detected in our monitoring program of the `typical' elliptical galaxy, NGC 3379, observed with Chandra ACIS-S in five separa…
The Dearth of low-luminosity Globular Cluster LMXBs in NGC 3379
G. Fabbiano, N. J. Brassington, A. Zezas +10
Our campaign of deep monitoring observations with {\it Chandra} of the nearby elliptical galaxy NGC 3379 has lead to the detection of nine globular cluster (GC) and 53 field low ma…
The Orbital Period of the Wolf-Rayet Binary IC 10 X-1; Dynamic Evidence that the Compact Object is a Black Hole
A. H. Prestwich, R. Kilgard, P. A. Crowther +6
IC 10 X-1 is a bright (Lx=10^38 ergs/s) variable X-ray source in the local group starburst galaxy IC 10. The most plausible optical counterpart is a luminous Wolf-Rayet star, makin…
The X-ray binary population in M33: II. X-ray spectra and variability
H. -J. Grimm, J. McDowell, A. Zezas +2
In this paper we investigate the X-ray spectra and X-ray spectral variability of compact X-ray sources for 3 Chandra observations of the Local Group galaxy M33. The observations ar…
Occultation measurement of the size of the X-ray emitting region in the Active Galactic Nucleus of NGC 1365
G. Risaliti, M. Elvis, G. Fabbiano +3
We present an occultation of the central X-ray emitting region in the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 1365. This extreme spectral variation (from Compton-thin to reflection-dominated and back t…
