XMM - Newton EPIC Observation of the Galaxy Cluster A 3667 ⋆
The Abell cluster of galaxies A3667 was observed with XMM-Newton in 6 partially overlapping pointings. We present here the resulting X-ray surface brightness, temperature, entropy and pressure maps and discuss the structure of this cluster on scales from 0.1 to 30 arcminutes. Based on these observations we refine the origin of the A3667 cold front to the displacement of the low entropy, high me...
متن کاملProperties of the background of EPIC - pn onboard XMM - Newton
We have investigated the background properties of EPIC-pn onboard XMM-Newton to establish the background subtraction method. Count rates of the background vary violently by two orders of magnitude at the maximum, while during the most quiet period, these are stable within 8 % at a 1 σ level. The overall spectrum is dominated by particle events above 5 keV, and its spatial variation is also foun...
متن کاملXMM-Newton EPIC and RGS observations of LMC X-3
We report the results of preliminary analysis of the XMM-Newton EPIC and RGS observations of the candidate black-hole binary LMC X-3 between February and June 2000. The observations covered both the soft and the hard X-ray spectral states. The hard-state spectra were dominated by a power-law component with a photon index Γ ≈ 1.9. The soft-state spectra consisted of a thermal component with a mu...
متن کاملXmm-newton Epic Observations of Her X-1
We present spin-resolved X-ray data of the neutron star binary Her X-1. We find evidence that the Iron line at 6.4 keV originates from the same location as the blackbody X-ray component. The line width and energy varies over both the spin period and the 35 day precession period. We also find that the correlation between the soft and hard X-ray light curves varies over the 35 day period.
متن کاملXMM - Newton EPIC observations of 21 low - redshift PG quasars
We present an X-ray spectral analysis of 21 low redshift quasars observed with XMM-Newton EPIC. All the sources are Palomar Green quasars with redshifts between 0.05 and 0.4 and have low Galactic absorption along the line-of-sight. A large majority of quasars in the sample (19/21) exhibit a significant soft excess below ∼ 1–1.5 keV, whilst two objects (PG1114+445 and I Zw1) show a deficit of so...
