The Flared Disc Project : RXTE and ASCA observations of X 1822 − 371
We present archival Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) and simultaneous Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics (ASCA) data of the eclipsing low mass Xray binary (LMXB) X 1822−371. Our spectral analysis shows that a variety of simple models can fit the spectra relatively well. Of these models, we explore two in detail through phase resolved fits. These two models represent the case of...
متن کاملASCA − RXTE observations of the micro - quasar GRS 1915 + 105
A Chandra AO1 30ks HETGS observation of the X-ray transient micro-quasar GRS 1915+105 reveals absorption edges and faint line emission over the HETG energy range. We find from a preliminary analysis evidence for prominent neutral K edges associated with iron, silicon, magnesium, and tentatively sulphur. The column densities assuming solar abundances are consistent with ∼ few × 10 cm in excess o...
متن کاملSimultaneous Asca and Rxte Observations of Cygnus X-1 during Its 1996 State Transition
We report results from simultaneous ASCA and RXTE observations of Cygnus X-1 when the source made a rare transition from the hard (5low) state to the soft (5high) state in 1996. These observations together cover a broad energy range ∼0.7–50 keV with a moderate energy resolution at the iron K band and thus make it possible to disentangle various spectral components. The low-energy spectrum is do...
متن کاملThe X-ray variability of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG 6-30-15 from long ASCA and RXTE observations
We present an analysis of the long Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE ) observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG 6-30-15, taken in July 1997. We have earlier used the data to place constraints for the first time on the iron abundance reflection fraction relationship, and now expand the analysis to investigate in detail the spectral X-ray variability of the object. Our results show that the behavi...
متن کاملBroad - band BeppoSAX observation of the low - mass X - ray binary X 1822 - 371
Results of a 1997 September 9–10 BeppoSAX observation of the 5.57 hr low-mass X-ray binary (LMXRB) X 1822371 are presented. The 0.3–40 keV spectrum is unusually complex and cannot be fit by any of the standard models applied to other LMXRB. At least two components are required. One component has a shape consistent with that expected from the Comptonization of an input soft (Wien) spectrum while...
