X - ray emission from Saturn
We report the first unambiguous detection of X-ray emission originating from Saturn with a Chandra observation, duration 65.5 ksec with ACIS-S3. Beyond the pure detection we analyze the spatial distribution of X-rays on the planetary surface, the light curve, and some spectral properties. The detection is based on 162 cts extracted from the ACIS-S3 chip within the optical disk of Saturn. We fou...
متن کاملA search for X-ray emission from Saturn, Uranus and Neptune
We present an analysis of X-ray observations of the trans-Jovian planets Saturn, Uranus and Neptune with the ROSAT PSPC in comparison with X-ray observations of Jupiter. For the first time a marginal X-ray detection of Saturn was found and 95% confidence upper limits for Uranus and Neptune were obtained. These upper limits show that Jupiter-like X-ray luminosities can be excluded for all three ...
متن کاملGamma-Ray Emission from X-Ray Binaries
We summarize the current observational picture regarding high-energy emission from Galactic X-ray binaries, reviewing the results of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory mission. We speculate on the prospects for the GLAST era.
متن کاملHard X-ray Emission From Low Mass X-ray Binaries
We report on Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of four type I X-ray bursters; namely 1E1724– 3045, GS1826–238, SLX1735–269 and KS1731-260. The first three were in a low state, with 1-200 keV Xray luminosities in the range ∼ 0.05−0.1 LEdd (LEdd: Eddington luminosity for a neutron star = 2.5×10 38 ergs s), whereas KS1731-260 was in a high state with a luminosity ∼ 0.35 LEdd. The low state ...
متن کاملExtended X-ray Emission from Qsos 1
We report Chandra ACIS observations of the fields of 4 QSOs showing strong extended optical emission-line regions. Two of these show no evidence for significant extended X-ray emission. The remaining two fields, those of 3C 249.1 and 4C 37.43, show discrete (but resolved) X-ray sources at distances ranging from ∼ 10 to ∼ 40 kpc from the nucleus. In addition, 4C 37.43 also may show a region of d...
