Evidence for Solar-Wind Charge-Exchange X-Ray Emission from the Earth’s Magnetosheath
We report an apparent detection of the CVI 4p to 1s transition line at 459 eV, during a long-term enhancement (LTE) in the Suzaku north ecliptic pole (NEP) observation of 2005 September 2. The observed intensity of the line is comparable to that of the CVI 2p to 1s line at 367 eV. This is strong evidence for the charge-exchange process. In addition to the CVI lines, emission lines from OVII, OV...
متن کاملX{ray emission from Clusters of Galaxies
In the last eight years, the Chandra and XMM–Newton satellites changed significantly our view of X–ray clusters of galaxies. In particular, several complex phenomena have been directly observed: interactions between cluster galaxies and the Intra Cluster Medium (ICM), cold fronts in the ICM, hot bubbles due to relativistic jets from radio loud AGN, the lack of cold gas in “cool–cores”, and non–...
متن کاملX-ray Emission from Clusters of Galaxies
We present a summary of X-ray spectral observations of 30 clusters of galaxies from HEAO-1. There exists strong correlations between X-ray luminosity, Lx , and temperature kT in the form L xaT2 ' 3 . This result combined with the Lx vs central galaxy density relation and the virial theorem indicates that the core radius of the gas should be roughly independent of Lx or KT and that more luminous...
متن کاملX-ray emission from clusters of galaxies
Clusters of galaxies are gravitationally bound configurations containing typically hundreds of galaxies in a region about 10 cm in size. They range from irregular clusters, with strong subclustering, no strong central concentration, and mainly spiral galaxies, to regular clusters, with smooth and centrally condensed galaxy distributions containing few spiral galaxies. Observations of these clus...
متن کاملHard X-ray emission from elliptical galaxies
We report the detection of hard X-ray emission components in the spectra of six nearby, giant elliptical galaxies observed with the ASCA satellite. The systems studied, which exhibit strong dynamical evidence for supermassive black holes in their nuclei, are M87, NGC 1399 and NGC 4696 (the dominant galaxies of the Virgo, Fornax and Centaurus clusters, respectively) and NGC 4472, 4636 and 4649 (...
