The XMM-Newton view of the radio-quiet neutron star 1E 1207.4-5209
A. De Luca, S. Mereghetti, P. A. Caraveo +3
We have observed the radio-quiet X-ray pulsar 1E 1207.4-5209 with the high throughput EPIC cameras onboard XMM-Newton. The spectrum of this peculiar source is characterized by two…
HST proper motion confirms the optical detection of PSR B1929+10
A. De Luca, R. P. Mignani, P. A. Caraveo +1
We have measured the proper motion of the candidate optical counterpart of the old, nearby pulsar PSR B1929+10, using a set of HST/STIS images collected in 2001, 7.2 years after th…
Studying the Cosmic X-ray Background with XMM-Newton
A. De Luca, S. Molendi
We present a work in progress aimed at measuring the spectrum of the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB) with the EPIC detectors onboard XMM-Newton. Our study includes a detailed charact…
XMM-Newton and Wide Field Optical Imaging to crack the mystery of unidentified gamma-ray sources
P. A. Caraveo, A. De Luca, N. La Palombara +5
The limited angular resolution of gamma-ray telescopes prevents the straight identification of the majority of the sources detected so far. While the only certified galactic gamma-…
Status of the EPIC/MOS calibration
P. Ferrando, A. F. Abbey, B. Altieri +16
The XMM-Newton observatory has the largest collecting area flown so far for an X-ray imaging system, resulting in a very high sensitivity over a broad spectral range. In order to e…
