Spectral Properties of a Sample of Low Luminosity Type I X-ray Bursters
نویسنده
چکیده
I report on a sample of new type I X-ray bursters, firstly detected with the Wide Field Cameras on board BeppoSAX and then studied with the Narrow Field Instruments on a broad spectral range (0.1-200 keV). Properties of the transient/persistent emission are summarized and the broad band X-ray spectra discussed in detail for a few sources.

Chandra follow - up of bursters with low persistent emission
We report on Chandra ACIS-S observations of five type I X-ray bursters with low persistent emission: We designate candidate persistent sources for four X-ray bursters. All candidates are detected at a persistent luminosity level of 10 32−33 erg s −1 , comparable to soft X-ray transients in quiescence. From the number of bursters with low persistent emission detected so far with the Wide Field C...
متن کاملX-ray properties of bright OB-type stars detected in the ROSAT all-sky survey
The ROSAT all-sky survey has been used to study the X-ray properties for all OB-type stars listed in the Yale Bright Star Catalogue. Here we present a detailed astrophysical discussion of our analysis of the X-ray properties of our complete sample of OB-type stars; a compilation of the X-ray data is provided in an accompanying paper (Berghöfer, Schmitt & Cassinelli 1996). We demonstrate that th...
متن کاملXmm-newton Survey of the Central Region of M31. Spectral Properties and Variability of Bright X-ray Sources and Source Classification
We present the results of the systematic survey of X-ray sources in the central region of M31 using the data from XMM-Newton observations performed in the years 2000-2004. The spectral properties and variability of 123 bright X-ray sources with apparent luminosities between ∼ 1036 and 5×1038 ergs s−1 were studied in detail. The spectral properties of majority of sources in our sample have been ...
متن کاملSpectral States and Transient Behaviour of a Sample of X-ray Bursters Observed by Bepposax
During observation campaigns of the Galactic Bulge region, BeppoSAX detected a total of 21 new X-ray bursters in about 6 years of operation. These sources are mostly transient and often feature a hard X-ray spectrum, extending up to ∼ 200 keV. A hard spectrum is generally found in weak, relatively short outbursts. On the other hand two sources, SAX J1747.02853 and SAX J1750.8-2900, have been se...

Since 1996 a monitoring campaign of the Galactic Bulge region has been performed by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras in the 2–28 keV band. This allowed accurate and unbiased studies of classes of objects. In particular the type-I X-ray bursters, whose distribution is concentrated in the monitored sky region, have been investigated. High luminos-ity radius-expansion bursts have been observed from...
