Hard X-ray phase-contrast imaging with the Compact Light Source based on inverse Compton X-rays.
The first imaging results obtained from a small-size synchrotron are reported. The newly developed Compact Light Source produces inverse Compton X-rays at the intersection point of the counter propagating laser and electron beam. The small size of the intersection point gives a highly coherent cone beam with a few milliradian angular divergence and a few percent energy spread. These specificati...
متن کاملBlazars in hard X–rays
Although blazars are thought to emit most of their luminosity in the γ–ray band, there are subclasses of them very prominent in hard X–rays. These are the best candidates to be studied by Simbol–X. They are at the extremes of the blazar sequence, having very small or very high jet powers. The former are the class of TeV emitting BL Lacs, whose synchrotron emission often peaks at tens of keV or ...
متن کاملSuper-Orbital Variability in Hard X-rays
We present the results of a study with the Swift Burst Alert Telescope in the 14 – 195 keV range of the long-term variability of 5 low mass X-ray binaries with reported or suspected super-orbital periods — 4U 1636-536, 4U 1820-303, 4U 1916-053, Cyg X-2 and Sco X-1. No significant persistent periodic modulation was detected around the previously reported periods in the 4U 1916-053, Cyg X-2 or Sc...
متن کاملFlare hard X-rays from neutral beams
A new mechanism is presented for the production of bremsstrahlung radiation from neutral beams (p+,e−) and its possible relevance to flare heating and production of hard xray bursts is discussed. Beam electrons lag behind the protons, due to differential drag in collisions with the background, but their longitudinal velocities are closely tied to the protons by the electric field generated. How...
متن کاملInverse Compton X-rays from relativistic flare electrons and positrons
Context. In solar flares, inverse Compton scattering (ICS) of photospheric photons might give rise to detectable hard X-ray photon fluxes from the corona where ambient densities are too low for significant bremsstrahlung or recombination. γ-ray lines and continuum in some large flares imply the presence of the necessary ∼ 100 MeV electrons and positrons, the latter as by-products of GeV energy ...
