Broad P Cygni X - ray Lines from Circinus X -
Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) observations of the extremely luminous and violent X-ray binary Cir X-1 reveal many X-ray emission lines showing broad P Cygni profiles. These are from H-like and He-like ions of Ne, Mg, Si, S, Ar, and Fe. The lines originate in a high-velocity (up to 2000 km s) outflow, which may be an accretion disk wind. Cir X-1 has a radio jet, a...
متن کاملStatic third-harmonic lines in widely variable fiber continuum generation.
An intriguing phenomenon of third-harmonic generation under fiber continuum generation is the emission of an anharmonic signal. One popular interpretation of this effect has developed into a general theory of fiber third-harmonic generation. Here we produce "static" third-harmonic Unes dictated fully by fiber properties independent of pump parameters, in contrast to the signals of all known pha...
متن کاملVariation in Emission and Absorption Lines and Continuum Flux by Orbital Phase in Vela X - 1
High resolution spectral studies were undertaken at orbital phases (φ) 0, 0.25 and 0.5 on the high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) Vela X-1 using archival Chandra data. We present (a) the first detailed analysis of the multiple strong narrow emission lines present in φ 0.5 (b) an analysis of the absorption of the continuum in φ 0.5, and (c) the first detection of narrow emission and absorption lines i...
متن کاملThe Discovery of a P Cygni Analog in M31
We present spectroscopy and discuss the photometric history of a previously obscure star in M31. The spectrum of the star is an extremely close match to that of P Cygni, one of the archetypes of Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs). The star has not shown much variability over the past 40 years (< 0.2 mag), although small-scale (0.05 mag) variations over a year appear to be real. Nevertheless, the pr...
متن کاملSubtle structures in the wind of P Cygni
The blue super-giant PCygni has been observedwith the Grand Interféromètre à 2 Télescopes (GI2T). Using high spatial resolution data at low spectral resolution (R=3860) of Hα and HeI6678 emission lines we clearly resolve the extended enveloppe of this Luminous Blue Variable on August 1994. The angular diameter of the equivalent uniform disk taken over the total extent of these lines corresponds...
