    Notes: [Auszug] Hercules X-1 (Her X-1) was observed by the European Space Agency's EXOSAT Observatory (see ref. 12 for additional details) on 1983 June 28, 37 days after the Tenma X-ray satellite observed that it was close to its maximum high-state intensity13. During the 35-day cycle, Her X-1 normally has a ...

    Notes: [Auszug] ASTRONOMERS are becoming increasingly aware that to understand X-ray sources better they must observe them over the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Participants at a recent multidisciplinary meeting* presented the results of observational and theoretical studies ranging from the radio to the ...

    Notes: Abstract We report the detection of soft X-rays from comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) by the Low Energy Concentrator Spectrometer (LECS) on-board the X-ray satellite, BeppoSAX. The observations took place on 1996 September 10–11 approximately 1 day after a large dust outburst (Schulz et al., 1997–1999). After correcting for the comets motion, a 7σ enhancement was found centered (2.1 ± 1.3) x 105 km from the position of the nucleus, in the general solar direction. The total X-ray luminosity in the 0.1–2.0 keV energy band is 5 x 1016 erg s−1 which is at least a factor of ∼ 3 greater than measured by the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE)4 days later and suggests that the bulk of the emission measured by the LECS is related to the dust outburst. The extracted LECS spectrum is well fit by a thermal bremsstrahlung-like distribution of temperature of 0.29 ± 0.06 keV - consistent with that observed in other comets. We find no evidence for fluorescent carbon or oxygen emission and place 95% confidence limits of 1.0 x 1015 and 7.8 x 1015 erg s−1 to narrow line emission at 0.28 and 0.53 keV, respectively. We calculate that if such lines are present, they constitute at most 18% of the 0.1–2.0 keV continuum luminosity.

    Notes: Summary Photometric observations of A0538-66 in quiescence show that the optical star is an object of equivalent spectral type B7eII. Spectroscopic data taken simultaneously confirm this spectral classification and are consistent with the reported periodic variations seen in the emission lines. It is unlikely that the optical outburst is due to X-rays reprocessed in the atmosphere of the primary star or elsewhere.

    Notes: Abstract We report photometric observations of the optical counterpart of the X-ray source 2S0921-630. The data, obtained at the South African Astronomical Observatory during 3 weeks in 1980 and 1981, are consistent with a 17.9 day periodic modulation of the flux in the B band. Correlated variability of the (B-V) and (U-B) colour indices with the B mag. is demonstrated and quantified. The observed B mag. and colours at maximum and minimum light are used to compute some of the system parameters. A model of 2S0921-630 is proposed in terms of a binary system in which the variable inclination of a luminous accretion disc produces the long-term modulation of the optical flux.

    Notes: Abstract We present the results of a continuous 18 hour observation of 4U1755-33 made with the European Space Agency's EXOSAT Observatory. Four 50 min dips in X-ray intensity were observed equally spaced with a period of 4.4 hrs, confirming the periodicity first suggested in White et al. (1984). The dips are spectrally independent. We examine the properties of 4U1755-33 and conclude that the source is most probably point-like and that the metallicity of the absorbing material is at least 600 times less than cosmic values.

    Notes: Abstract The X-ray emission from Algol is thought to originate in a corona associated with the K star in this system. We report the results of a 35 hr continuous EXOSAT observation through secondary optical eclipse that was designed to measure the structure of the corona. No obvious X-ray eclipse was seen. The spectrum measured by the ME gives a temperature of 2.5 × 107 K, consistent with the hard component previously seen by the Einstein SSS. The soft component previously reported by the SSS would only contribute at most 25% to the count rate seen in the LE (used with Al/P). The lack of a hard X-ray eclipse indicates the dimensions of the higher temperature emission region to be comparable to or greater than the size of the K star. An X-ray flare was detected with a peak luminosity of 1.4 × 1031 erg s-1 and a total duration of 8 hours. The peak temperature was 5.0 keV with an emission measure of 9.4 × 1053 cm-3. The thermal nature of the flare is confirmed by the detection of an iron line with an EW of ∼2 keV. By equating the observed decay time of the flare to a known cooling law gives a dimension for the flaring loop of ∼0.3 stellar radii. This is much smaller than the dimensions of the hard component inferred from the lack of an eclipse. It seems probable that the flare occurred in one of the loops responsible for the lower temperature component seen by the SSS.

    Notes: Abstract We present the results of four observations made by the European Space Agency's EXOSAT Observatory of the X-ray transient 4U1630-47 during its 1984 outburst. We observed marked spectral changes as the source decayed from a maximum observed intensity of 8×10−9 erg/cm2/sec (1.5–10 keV). The spectrum could be modelled by a soft ‘thermal-like’ component with a high energy power-law tail. The relative contribution of the soft to hard component decreased as the total luminosity decreased. We compare these changes with those observed from the black hole candidate Cyg X-1 when it transitions from a high to a low state. In addition we report the discovery of short timescale intensity variations (down to ∼ 50 msec) with a characteristic timescale of ∼ 20 sec. We present a precise position for this unidentified source.

    Notes: Abstract A 13 hr observation of 2S0142+61 on 1984 August 27 by EXOSAT shows the X-ray flux of 2S0142+61 to be modulated with a period of 1456+/-6 s. The 1–10 keV spectrum is two component with a ∼0.7 keV thermal and 0.0 energy index power law, with 30% of the total luminosity in the thermal component. The spectrum is absorbed by ∼1 × 1022 H cm-2. Only the hard component is pulsed with a 3 to 10 keV peak to mean amplitude of 35%. Below 2 keV the modulation is less than a few percent. The total 1–10 keV luminosity is 3.5 × 1032 erg s-1 for a distance of 100 pc. Possible optical counterparts are discussed.
