The Chandra Multi - wavelength Project ( ChaMP ) : a serendipitous survey with Chandra archival data
The Chandra Multi-wavelength Project (ChaMP): a serendipitous survey with Chandra archival data. Abstract. The launch of the Chandra X-ray Observatory in July 1999 opened a new era in X-ray astronomy. Its unprecedented, < 0.5 " spatial resolution and low background are providing views of the X-ray sky 10-100 times fainter than previously possible. We have initiated a serendipitous survey (ChaMP...
متن کاملX-ray Processing of Champlane Fields: Methods and Initial Results for Selected Anti-galactic Center Fields
We describe the X-ray analysis procedure of the on-going Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) survey and report the initial results from the analysis of 15 selected anti-Galactic center observations (90 < l < 270). We describe the X-ray analysis procedures for ChaMPlane using custom-developed analysis tools appropriate for Galactic sources but also of general use: optimum photometry in cro...
متن کاملA Chandra Survey of Quasar Jets: First Results
We present results from Chandra X-ray imaging and spectroscopy of a flux-limited sample of flat spectrum radio-emitting quasars with jet-like extended structure. Twelve of twenty quasar jets are detected in 5 ks ACIS-S exposures. The quasars without X-ray jets are not significantly different from those in the sample with detected jets except that the extended radio emission is generally fainter...
متن کاملA deep cluster survey in Chandra archival data. First results
I present the first results of a search for clusters of galaxies in Chandra ACIS pointed observations at high galactic latitude with exposure times larger than 10 ks. The survey is being carried out using the Voronoi Tessellation and Percolation technique, which is particularly suited for the detection and accurate quantification of extended and/or low surface brightness emission in X-ray imagi...
متن کاملThe Brightest Serendipitous X-ray Sources in ChaMPlane
The Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey is a comprehensive effort to constrain the population of accretion-powered and coronal low-luminosity X-ray sources (LX ∼< 10 33 erg s) in the Galaxy. ChaMPlane incorporates X-ray, optical, and infrared observations of fields in the Galactic Plane imaged with Chandra in the past six years. We present the results of a population study of the b...
