The X - ray spectral evolution of the ultraluminous X - ray source Holmberg IX X - 1
We present a new analysis of X-ray spectra of the archetypal ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) Holmberg IX X-1 obtained by the Swift, XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observatories. This ULX is a persistent source, with a typical luminosity of ∼10 erg s, that varied by a factor of 4 – 5 over eight years. We find that its spectra tend to evolve from relatively flat or two-component spectra in the medium ene...
متن کاملFirst Detection of Mid-infrared Variability from an Ultraluminous X-Ray Source Holmberg II X-1
We present mid-infrared (IR) light curves of the Ultraluminous X-ray Source (ULX) Holmberg II X-1 from observations taken between 2014 January 13 and 2017 January 5 with the Spitzer Space Telescope at 3.6 and 4.5 μm in the Spitzer Infrared Intensive Transients Survey. The mid-IR light curves, which reveal the first detection of mid-IR variability from a ULX, is determined to arise primarily fro...
متن کاملNustar, Xmm-newton, and Suzaku Observations of the Ultraluminous X-ray Source Holmberg Ii X-1
We present the first broadband 0.3–25.0 keV X-ray observations of the bright ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) Holmberg II X-1, performed by NuSTAR, XMM-Newton, and Suzaku in 2013 September. The NuSTAR data provide the first observations of Holmberg II X-1 above 10 keV and reveal a very steep high-energy spectrum, similar to other ULXs observed by NuSTAR to date. These observations further demon...
متن کاملThe evolution of a jet ejection of the ultraluminous X-ray source Holmberg II X-1
We present quasi-simultaneous, multi-epoch radio and X-ray measurements of Holmberg II X-1 using the European VLBI Network (EVN), the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), and the Chandra and Swift X-ray telescopes. The X-ray data show apparently hard spectra with steady X-ray luminosities 4 months apart from each other. In the high-resolution EVN radio observations, we have detected an extend...
متن کاملBROADBAND X-RAY SPECTRA OF THE ULTRALUMINOUS X-RAY SOURCE HOLMBERG IX X-1 OBSERVED WITH NuSTAR, XMM-NEWTON AND SUZAKU
We present results from the coordinated broadband X-ray observations of the extreme ultraluminous X-ray source Holmberg IX X-1 performed by NuSTAR, XMM-Newton and Suzaku in late 2012. These observations provide the first high-quality spectra of Holmberg IX X-1 above 10 keV to date, extending the X-ray coverage of this remarkable source up to ∼30 keV. Broadband observations were undertaken at tw...
