Extreme Ultraviolet Emission from Neutron Stars
We summarize the detections of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) emission from neutron stars. Three rm detections have been made of spin-powered pulsars: the aged millisecond pulsar PSR J0437?4715, the middle-aged X-ray pulsar Geminga, and the radio pulsar PSR B0656+14. These observations allow us to evaluate both power-law and thermal-law emission models as the source of the EUV ux. For the case of PS...
متن کامل1 v 1 2 N ov 1 99 9 EUV EMISSION IN ABELL 1795 , ABELL 2199 , AND THE COMA CLUSTER
We report new EUV data on the cluster of galaxies Abell 1795. These data were taken well away from a detector defect which could have compromised earlier results on this cluster. Our new observations confirm the validity of the original data set. However, we find our results are strongly influenced by the variation of the telescope sensitivity over the field of view and upon the details of the ...
متن کاملX-Ray and Extreme Ultraviolet Emission from Comets
The discovery of high energy X-ray emission in 1996 from C/1996 B2 (Hyakutake) has created a surprising new class of X-ray emitting objects. The original discovery (Lisse et al., 1996) and subsequent detection of X-rays from 17 other comets (Table 1) have shown that the very soft (E < 1 keV) emission is due to an interaction between the solar wind and the comet’s atmosphere, and that X-ray emis...
متن کاملChandra imaging of the X - ray core of Abell 1795
We report the discovery of a 40 arcsec long X-ray filament in the core of the cluster of galaxies A 1795. The feature coincides with an Hα+NII filament found by Cowie et al in the early 1980s and resolved into at least 2 U-band filaments by McNamara et al in the mid 1990s. The (emission-weighted) temperature of the X-ray emitting gas along the filament is 2.5 − 3 keV, as revealed by X-ray colou...
متن کاملDeep inside the core of Abell 1795 : the Chandra view
We present X-ray spatial and spectral analysis of the Chandra data from the central 400 h −1 50 kpc of the cluster of galaxies Abell 1795. The plasma temperature rises outwards by a factor of 3, whereas the iron abundance decreases by a factor of 4. The spatial distribution of Oxygen, Neon, Sulphur, Silicon and Iron shows that supernovae Type Ia dominate the metal enrichment process of the clus...
