Letter to the Editor An X-ray binary model for the Galactic Center source IRS 13E
نویسنده
چکیده
We present several models for IRS 13E, an infrared, mm and X-ray source in the Galactic Center. Our favored interpretation is that of an early-type binary with strong colliding winds emission. This naturally explains the observed X-ray count rate and the strong infrared emission lines, and has a distinct advantage over competing hypotheses based upon a single star or black-hole system.

An X - ray Binary Model for the Galactic Center Source IRS 13
We present several models for IRS 13E, an in-frared, mm and X-ray source in the Galactic Center. Our favored interpretation is that of an early-type binary with strong colliding winds emission. This naturally explains the observed X-ray count rate and the strong IR emission lines, and has a distinct advantage over competing hypotheses based upon a single star or BH system.
متن کاملThe Galactic Centre Source IRS 13 E : a Post - LBV Wolf - Rayet Colliding Wind Binary ?
IRS 13E is an infrared, mm and X-ray source in the Galactic Centre. We present the first Chandra X-ray spectrum for IRS 13E and show that it is consistent with a luminous and highly absorbed X-ray binary system. Since the X-ray luminosity is too large for a solitary star, our interpretation is that of an early-type long-period binary with strong colliding winds emission. This naturally explains...
متن کاملLetter to the Editor BeppoSAX observations of a new X-ray burster in the Galactic Center region, possibly coincident with a recurrent transient
We report BeppoSAX NFI observations of the X-ray source SAX J1747.0–2853 recently discovered in the region of the Galactic Center. The presence of type I X-ray bursts indicates that this source, positionally coincident with the transient GX 0.2–0.2 observed in 1976, is a neutron star accreting from a low mass companion.

We report measurements of the light curve of the variable Galactic Center source IRS16SW. The light curve is not consistent with an eclipsing binary or any other obvious variable star. The source may be an example of a high mass variable predicted theoretically but not observed previously.
