XMM-Newton results on the ultracompact Low Mass X-ray Binary 4U~1850-087 in the Globular Cluster NGC6712
L. Sidoli, A. N. Parmar, T. Oosterbroek
We report on preliminary results from our XMM-Newton observation of the Low Mass X-ray Binary 4U 1850-087, located in the galactic globular cluster NGC 6712. It is an ultracompact…
BeppoSAX observation of the transient X-ray pulsar GS 1843+00
S. Piraino, A. Santangelo, A. Segreto +8
We present the results from both the timing and spectroscopic analysis of the transient X-ray pulsar GS 1843+00 observed by the BeppoSAX satellite on 1997 April 4, when the source…
Discovery of a faint 437 s X-ray pulsar 1SAX J1452.8-5949
T. Oosterbroek, M. Orlandini, A. N. Parmar +6
A new pulsar, 1SAX J1452.8-5949, was discovered during a BeppoSAX galactic plane survey on 1999 July 20 at R.A.=14h 52m 49s, Dec=-59 49' 18'' (J2000) with a 90% confidence uncertai…
BeppoSAX spectroscopy of the globular cluster X-ray source X1746-371 (NGC6441)
A. N. Parmar, T. Oosterbroek, M. Guainazzi +3
During a BeppoSAX observation of the X-ray source X1746-371 located in the globular cluster NGC6441 a type I X-ray burst, parts of 4 intensity dips, and energy dependent flaring we…
BeppoSAX observations of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxies:I. Ton S 180
A. Comastri, F. Fiore, M. Guainazzi +10
We report on the first spectrum up to 10 keV of the bright narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Ton S 180, obtained with the imaging instruments onboard BeppoSAX. This is the first observe…
A BeppoSAX LECS observation of the super-soft source CAL83
A. N. Parmar, P. Kahabka, H. W. Hartmann +1
We report on a BeppoSAX Low-Energy Concentrator Spectrometer (LECS) observation of the super-soft source (SSS) CAL83. The X-ray emission in SSS is believed to arise from nuclear bu…
