THE FIRST ACCURATE PARALLAX DISTANCE TO A BLACK HOLE
- J. Miller-Jones, P. Jonker, +8 authors Mit
- Physics
- 27 October 2009
Using astrometric VLBI observations, we have determined the parallax of the black hole X-ray binary V404 Cyg to be 0.418 ± 0.024 mas, corresponding to a distance of 2.39 ± 0.14 kpc, significantly…
Diffuse X-Ray Emission in a Deep Chandra Image of the Galactic Center
- M. Muno, F. Baganoff, +8 authors Penn State
- Physics
- 3 February 2004
We examine the spectrum of diffuse emission detected in the 17' ? 17' field around Sgr A* during 625 ks of Chandra observations. The spectrum exhibits He-like and H-like lines from Si, S, Ar, Ca, and…
Evolved Galaxies at z > 1.5 from the Gemini Deep Deep Survey: The Formation Epoch of Massive Stellar Systems
- P. McCarthy, D. Borgne, +20 authors Hubble Fellow
- Physics
- 19 August 2004
We present spectroscopic evidence from the Gemini Deep Deep Survey for a significant population of color-selected red galaxies at 1.3 1.5 old galaxies have a sky density greater than 0.1 arcmin-2.…
Discovery of two high-magnetic-field radio pulsars
We report the discovery of two young isolated radio pulsars with very high inferred magnetic —elds. PSR J1119(6127 has period P \ 0.407 s, and the largest period derivative known among radio pulsars,…
A long hard look at MCG–6-30-15 with XMM-Newton
- A. Fabian, S. Vaughan, +12 authors U. Maryland
- Physics
- 6 June 2002
We present the first results from a 325-ks observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG–6-30-15 with XMM-Newton and BeppoSAX. The strong, broad, skewed iron line is clearly detected and is well…
A Long, Hard Look at the Low/Hard State in Accreting Black Holes
- J. Miller, J. Homan, +13 authors U. Cambridge
- Physics
- 28 February 2006
We present the first results of coordinated multiwavelength observations of the Galactic black hole GX 339-4 in a canonical low/hard state, obtained during its 2004 outburst. XMM-Newton observed the…
The evolution of the timing properties of the black-hole transient GX 339-4 during its 2002/2003 outburst
- T. Belloni, J. Homan, +12 authors Sron Utrecht
- Physics
- 26 April 2005
We present the results of the timing and color analysis of more than two hundred RXTE/PCA observations of the bright black-hole transient GX 339-4 obtained during its 2002/2003 outburst. The…
IMPROVED SPECTROSCOPIC PARAMETERS FOR TRANSITING PLANET HOSTS
- G. Torres, D. Fischer, +11 authors Mit
- Physics
- 6 August 2012
We report homogeneous spectroscopic determinations of the effective temperature, metallicity, and projected rotational velocity for the host stars of 56 transiting planets. Our analysis is based…
XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer Observations of Discrete Soft-X-ray Emission Features from NGC 1068
- A. Kinkhabwala, M. Sako, +11 authors Llnl
- Physics
- 19 March 2002
We present the first high-resolution, soft X-ray spectrum of the prototypical Seyfert 2 galaxy, NGC 1068. This spectrum was obtained with the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS).…
A Prominent Accretion Disk in the Low-Hard State of the Black Hole Candidate SWIFT J1753.5-0127
- J. M. Miller, J. Homan, G. W. U. O. Michigan, Mit, U. Cambridge
- Physics
- 8 May 2006
We report on simultaneous XMM-Newton and RXTE observations of the stellar mass black hole candidate SWIFT J1753.5-0127. The source was observed in the low-hard state, during the decline of a hard…
