Ultraviolet Observations of NGC 3516 using the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope
We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3516 twice during the flight of Astro-2 using the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope aboard the space shuttle Endeavour in March 1995. Simultaneous X-ray observations were performed with ASCA. Our far-ultraviolet spectra cover the spectral range 820–1840 Å with a resolution of 2–4 Å. No significant variations were found between the two observations. The total spe...
متن کاملHopkins Ultraviolet Telescope Observations of Her X - 1
We have obtained a far-ultraviolet spectrum of the X-ray binary Hercules X1/HZ Herculis using the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope aboard the Astro-1 space shuttle mission in 1990 December. This is the first spectrum of Her X-1 that extends down to the Lyman limit at 912 Å. We observed emission lines of OVIλλ 1031.9, 1037.6, NVλλ 1238.8, 1242.8, and C IVλλ 1548.2, 1550.8, and the far UV continuum ...

متن کاملRe-examining the Lyman Continuum in Starburst Galaxies Observed with the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope
We have reevaluated the constraints on the Lyman continuum emission from four starburst galaxies observed with the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) during the Astro-2 mission. Applying a detailed model of the absorption by interstellar gases in our Galaxy, and using the latest HUT data products, we find upper limits to the redshifted Lyman continuum that are less restrictive than those repor...
متن کاملPerformance and Preliminary Calibration of the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope on the Astro-2 Mission
An improved version of the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (HUT) made its second flight on the Astro-2 mission aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour from 1995 March 2–18. The longer mission duration and greatly improved pointing stability relative to Astro-1 made possible 385 observations of 265 celestial targets at far-ultraviolet wavelengths. Observing efficiency exceeding 60% over 14 days of scie...
