The Outburst of Hst-1 in the M87 Jet
The X-ray intensity of knot HST-1, 0.85 from the nucleus of the radio galaxy M87, has increased by more than a factor of 50 during the last 5 years. The optical increase is similar and our more limited radio data indicate a commensurate activity. We give the primary results of our Chandra X-ray Observatory monitoring program and consider some of the implications of this extreme variability in a...
متن کاملHST/FOS Eclipse mapping of IP Pegasi in outburst
IP Pegasi is a deeply eclipsing dwarf nova (Porb = 3.8 hr) which shows 1-2 weeks-long, ≃ 2 mag outbursts every 60120 days. During outbursts, tidally induced spiral shocks form in its accretion disc as the disc expands and its outer parts feel more effectively the gravitational attraction of the companion star (Steeghs, Harlaftis & Horne 1997). Here we present the first results of a time-resolve...
متن کاملComptel Observations of Gro J1655-40
GRO J1655-40 is a transient black-hole candidate that has been shown to eject matter at apparently superluminal velocities. OSSE spectra measured during X-ray outbursts are consistent with a single power law up to 600 keV, with no evidence for a high-energy cutoo. Flaring behaviour of GRO J1655-40 has also been claimed to be detected up to 10 MeV during observations with the balloon-borne HIREG...
متن کاملHst Nicmos Observations of Fsc10214+4724
High-resolution, 1.10, 2.05, 2.12, and 2.15 µm imaging of the gravitationally lensed system FSC10214+4724 are presented. These data extend Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the lens system to redder wavelengths, thus providing the highest resolution images to date of the rest-frame optical and narrow-line (i.e., Hα+[N II]) regions of the background quasar. The length of the arc in th...
متن کاملHST Observations of the Gravitational Lens Systems
High angular resolution PC1 images of the gravitational lens systems HE 1104−1805 and J03.13 are presented. Using a method described in Remy et al. (1997a), optimal TinyTim PSFs are constructed to fit at best the lensed pointlike components. The derived photometry of the GL components and the detection of the lens galaxy for HE 1104-1805 are discussed. Textbook case FOS spectra of J03.13 A and ...
