Calibration of the Spectrometer aboard the INTEGRAL satellite

Stéphane Schanne, B. Cordier, M. Gros +27

SPI, the Spectrometer on board the ESA INTEGRAL satellite, to be launched in October 2002, will study the gamma-ray sky in the 20 keV to 8 MeV energy band with a spectral resolutio…

Multiwavelength observations revealing the evolution of the outburst of the black hole XTE J1118+480

S. Chaty, C. A. Haswell, J. Malzac +3

We report multiwavelength observations of the soft X-ray transient (SXT) XTE J1118+480, which we observed with UKIRT, HST, RXTE, EUVE and many other instruments and facilities. Add…

A Method for Black Hole Mass Determination in Accretion Powered X-Ray Sources

Chris Shrader, Lev Titarchuk

We describe a method for the determination of black-hole masses based on information inferred from high-energy spectra. It is required that the spectral energy distribution consist…

The remarkable rapid X-ray, ultraviolet, optical, and IR variability in the black hole XTE J1118+480

R. I. Hynes, C. A. Haswell, W. Cui +6

The transient black hole binary XTE J1118+480 exhibited dramatic rapid variability at all wavelengths which were suitably observed during its 2000 April-July outburst. We examine t…
