GAMMA RAY PULSARS Multiwavelength Observations
High-energy gamma rays are a valuable tool for studying particle acceleration and radiation in the magnetospheres of energetic pulsars. The seven or more pulsars seen by instruments on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO) show that: the light curves usually have double-peak structures (suggesting a broad cone of emission); gamma rays are frequently the dominant component of the radiated pow...
متن کاملA ug 2 00 3 Chandra Observations of the Dwarf Nova WX Hyi in Quiescence
We report Chandra observations of the dwarf nova WX Hyi in quiescence. The X-ray spectrum displays strong and narrow emission lines of N, O, Mg, Ne, Si, S and Fe. The various ionization states implied by the lines suggest that the emission is produced within a flow spanning a wide temperature range, from T ∼ 10 K to T & 10 K. Line diagnostics indicate that most of the radiation originates from ...
متن کاملOptical / Multiwavelength Observations of GRB Afterglows Titus
I review T-ray burst optical/multiwavelength afterglow observations since 1997, when the first counterparts to GRBs were discovered. I discuss what we have learned from multiwavelength observations of GRB afterglows in relation to the ‘standard’ fireball plus relativistic blast-wave models. To first order, the ‘standard’ model describes the afterglow observations well, but a wealth of informati...
متن کاملThe X-ray Spectra of Black Hole X-ray Novae in Quiescence as Measured by Chandra
We present Chandra observations of black hole X-ray novae V404 Cyg, A0620–00, GRO J1655–40 and XTE J1550–564 in quiescence. Their quiescent spectra can be well fitted by a power-law model with number slope α∼ 2. While a coronal (Raymond-Smith) model is also a statistically acceptable representation of the spectra, the best fit temperatures of these models is ∼ 5 times higher than that seen in a...
متن کاملMultiwavelength Observations of Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources
Multiwavelength observations may help us understand the physical nature of the ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) found in external galaxies. Enabled by the arcsecond X-ray source positions now available from Chandra, there has been significant recent progress in the identification of optical and radio counterparts to ULXs. Recent results are reviewed on the identification of optical stellar co...
