ROSAT Detection and High Precision Localization of X - ray
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on observations of the 1978, November 19 Gamma-Ray Burst source, performed with the ROSAT X-ray HRI experiment. Two sources were detected, one of which is possibly variable. The latter source is identical to the source discovered in 1981 by the EINSTEIN satellite, and recently detected by ASCA. The precise localization of these sources is given, and our data are compared with optical, radio and previous X-ray data.

X-ray Detection of Sn1988z with the Rosat Hri
We report the detection of SN1988Z in X-rays with the ROSAT High Resolution Imager. The inferred X-ray luminosity of about 10 41 erg s 1 can be well explained by assuming that the supernova occurred in a dense circumstellar medium, consistent with optical observations. SN1988Z is the most distant supernova yet detected in X-rays.
متن کاملSoft X-rays from High-Velocity Clouds
The ROSATmission gave us the unique possibility to study the galactic interstellar medium by “shadowing” observations on arcmin angular resolution level. The high sensitivity of the ROSAT PSPC in combination with the large field of view allows the detailed study of individual clouds, while the ROSAT all-sky survey is the main source for studies of the large-scale intensity distribution of the d...
متن کاملA Search for X-ray Reionization Signatures from Cross-correlation of Wmap and Rosat Rass Data
We present an observational search for the possible correlation between cosmic microwave background (CMB) polarization map and soft X-ray background (SXRB) based on the ROSAT All-sky Survey (RASS) archive and WMAP fiveyear observations. This is motivated by the fact that some of the CMB polarization may arise from the scattering of CMB photons due to the free electrons generated by X-ray heatin...
متن کاملPSPC detection of soft X - ray absorption in GB 1428 + 4217 : The most distant matter yet probed with X - ray spectroscopy
We report on a ROSAT PSPC observation of the highly-luminous z = 4.72 radio-loud quasar GB 1428+4217 obtained between 1998 December 11 and 17, the final days of the ROSAT satellite. The low-energy sensitivity of the PSPC detector was employed to constrain the intrinsic X-ray absorption of the currently most distant X-ray detected object. Here we present the detection of significant soft X-ray a...
متن کاملNew SSS from the ROSAT PSPC
We have performed Chandra observations during the past 3 years of 5 of the M31 supersoft X-ray sources discovered with ROSAT. Surprisingly, only one of these sources has been detected, despite a predicted detection of about 20-80 counts for these sources. This has motivated a thorough check of the ROSAT M31 survey I data, including a relaxation of the hardness ratio requirement used to select s...
