Polarization of X–ray emission from the Sgr B2 cloud
The Sgr B2 giant molecular cloud is claimed to be an ”X–ray reflection nebula” – the reprocessing site of a powerful flare of the Sgr A* source, occurred few hundred years ago. The shape of the X–ray spectrum and the strength of the iron fluorescent line support this hypothesis. We argue that the most clean test of the origin of X–rays from Sgr B2 would be a detection of polarized emission from...
متن کاملOn the enhanced X-ray emission from SGR
Soft gamma ray repeaters (SGRs) are neutron stars that emit short (< ∼ 1 s) and luminous (< ∼10 erg s−1) soft gamma ray bursts in their active phases. The burst repetition time scales extend from a second to years (see [7] for a review). In their quiescent states, they emit persistent X-rays at luminosities similar to those of anomalous Xray pulsars (AXPs) (Lx ∼ 10 − 10 erg s−1). The spin perio...
متن کاملDust Emission from the Perseus Molecular Cloud
Using far-infrared emission maps taken by IRAS and Spitzer and a near-infrared extinction map derived from 2MASS data, we have made dust temperature and column density maps of the Perseus molecular cloud. We show that the emission from transiently heated very small grains (VSGs) and the big grain dust emissivity vary as a function of extinction and dust temperature, with higher dust emissivitie...
متن کاملA dual emission mechanism in Sgr A * / L ′ ? ⋆
We have collected in 2004 adaptive optics corrected L ′ images of the Galactic Center region with NAOS-CONICA at VLT. A strong variability was observed as well as a correlation between the photocenter positions and fluxes of the L ′-band counterpart of Sgr A*. It is interpreted as the combined emission of a point-like flaring source at the position of Sgr A*/IR itself and an extended dust struc...
متن کاملPolarized mm And sub - mm Emission From Sgr A * At The Galactic Center
The recent detection of significant linear polarization at mm and sub-mm wavelengths in the spectrum of Sgr A* (if confirmed) will be a useful probe of the conditions within several Schwarzschild radii (rS) of the event horizon at the Galactic Center. Hydrodynamic simulations of gas flowing in the vicinity of this object suggest that the infalling gas circularizes when it approaches within 5− 2...
