Globular cluster x-ray sources.
Globular clusters and x-ray astronomy have a long and fruitful history. Uhuru and OSO-7 revealed highly luminous (> 10(36) ergs(-1)) x-ray sources in globular clusters, and Einstein and ROSAT revealed a larger population of low-luminosity (< 10(33) ergs(-1)) x-ray sources. It was realized early on that the high-luminosity sources were low-mass x-ray binaries in outburst and that they were order...
متن کاملX - Ray Observations of Globular Cluster
A ROSAT HRI X-ray image was obtained of the open globular cluster NGC 288, which is located near the South Galactic Pole. This is the first deep X-ray image of this system. We detect a Low Luminosity Globular Cluster X-ray source (LLGCX) RXJ005245.0−263449 with an X-ray luminosity of (5.5± 1.4)× 1032 ergs s−1 (0.1–2.0 keV), which is located very close to the cluster center. There is evidence fo...
متن کاملThe Discovery of a Very Faint X-ray Transient in the Globular Cluster M15
We have identified an X-ray transient (hereafter M15 X-3) in the globular cluster M15 from an archival Chandra grating observation. M15 X-3 appears at an X-ray luminosity of 6 × 10 ergs s with a spectrum consistent with an absorbed power law of photon index 1.51±0.14. The object is identifiable in archival Chandra HRC-I observations with an X-ray luminosity of 2− 6× 10 ergs s and apparently sof...
متن کاملThe Low Mass X-ray Binary-globular Cluster Connection Ii: Ngc 4472 X-ray Source Properties and Source Catalogs
We present the results of a Chandra/HST study of the point sources of the Virgo cluster giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4472. We identify 144 X-ray point sources outside the nuclear region, 72 of which are located within the HST fields. The optical data show 1102 sources, of which 829 have colors consistent with being globular clusters (with only 4 in the restricted central 10” region). Thirty matc...
