Absorption Of X-rays In The Interstellar Medium
- J. Wilms, A. Allen, R. M. I. Tuebingen, Jila
- Materials Science, Physics
- 28 August 2000
We present an improved model for the absorption of X-rays in the interstellar medium (ISM) intended for use with data from future X-ray missions with larger effective areas and increased energy… Expand
Rossi X‐Ray Timing Explorer Observation of Cygnus X‐1. II. Timing Analysis
- M. Nowak, B. Vaughan, J. Wilms, J. Dove, M. Begelman
- Physics
- 10 January 1999
We present timing analysis for a Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observation of Cygnus X-1 in its hard/low state. This was the first RXTE observation of Cyg X-1 taken after it transited back to… Expand
A study of magnetic fields of accreting X-ray pulsars with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer
- W. Coburn, W. Heindl, +5 authors R. Staubert
- Physics
- 1 December 2001
Using a consistent set of models, we parameterized the X-ray spectra of all accreting pulsars in the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) database that exhibit cyclotron resonance scattering features… Expand
eROSITA science book: mapping the structure of the energetic universe
- A. Merloni, P. Predehl, +22 authors the German eROSITA Consortium
- Physics
- 14 September 2012
eROSITA is the primary instrument on the Russian SRG mission. In the first four years of scientific operation after its launch, foreseen for 2014, it will perform a deep survey of the entire X-ray… Expand
Letter of intent for KM3NeT 2.0
- S. Adrián-Martínez, M. Ageron, +244 authors J. Z'uniga
- Physics
- 27 January 2016
The main objectives of the KM3NeT Collaboration are (i) the discovery and subsequent observation of high-energy neutrino sources in the Universe and (ii) the determination of the mass hierarchy of… Expand
Polarized Gamma-Ray Emission from the Galactic Black Hole Cygnus X-1
- P. Laurent, J. Rodriguez, J. Wilms, M. Cadolle Bel, K. Pottschmidt, V. Grinberg
- Physics, Medicine
- Science
- 21 April 2011
This gamma-ray emission originates from a jet of relativistic particles that is formed in close proximity to the black hole. Because of their inherently high flux allowing the detection of clear… Expand
Long term variability of Cygnus X-1. I. X-ray spectral-temporal correlations in the hard state
- K. Pottschmidt, J. Wilms, +12 authors Ucb
- Physics
- 13 February 2002
We present the long term evolution of the timing properties of the black hole candidate Cygnus X-1 in the 0.002-128 Hz frequency range as monitored from 1998 to 2001 with the Rossi X-ray Timing… Expand
The role of the reflection fraction in constraining black hole spin
In many active galaxies, the X-ray reflection features from the innermost regions of the accretion disc are relativistically distorted. This distortion allows us to measure parameters of the black… Expand
Irradiation of an accretion disc by a jet: general properties and implications for spin measurements of black holes
- T. Dauser, J. García, +5 authors C. Reynolds
- Physics
- 21 January 2013
X-ray irradiation of the accretion disc leads to strong reflection features, which are then broadened and distorted by relativistic effects. We present a detailed, general relativistic approach to… Expand
Modulated High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission from the Microquasar Cygnus X-3
- A. Abdo, M. Ackermann, +173 authors M. Ziegler
- Physics, Medicine
- Science
- 11 December 2009
Microquasar Spotted Microquasars are binary star systems where a normal star sheds matter onto a neutron star or a black hole, generating x-ray radiation and jets of material moving at relativistic… Expand
