    X-rays from RS Canum Venaticorum systems - A HEAO 1 survey and the development of a coronal model (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The paper presents HEAO 1 low-energy X-ray observations of 59 known or suspected RS CVn systems cited in the lists of Hall (1976), Eggen (1978), and the circulars of the Working Group on RS CVn systems of IAU Commission 42. The data are used to argue against the validity of the minimum flux coronal models. A coronal loop model is used to derive expressions for the loop parameters in terms of observable quantities, and find acceptable solutions for RS CVn systems. It is concluded that the difference between solar activity and that observed in RS CVn systems may be merely a matter of scale.

    The coronae of 40 Eridani (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: High-resolution X-ray and radio images of the 40 Eridani triple star system have been obtained. The X-ray image, obtained with the Einstein Observatory, shows a corona of approximately solar intensity at the position of the K1 V star; the dM4e flare star is a strong X-ray source estimated at 2 x 10 to the 28th ergs/s. The hot white dwarf 40 Eridani B shows no X-ray signal down to a level of 8 x 10 to the 26th ergs/s. A VLA 4885 MHz radio image shows no evidence of signal from any of the three stars, down to the 0.95 mJy level.

    The X-ray superbubble in Cygnus (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: It is shown that Cyg X-6 and Cyg X-7 are part of a large X-ray ring, 13 degrees in diameter. At a distance of 2 kpc, this X-ray source lies behind the Great Rift of Cygnus, and as such has radiation from its central region absorbed. The diameter of the emitting region is 450 pc. The X-ray source is associated with a ring of elongated H-alpha filaments which enclose the Cygnus X radio source. At the center of this region lies the highly luminous Cygnus OB2 association.

    Einstein Observations of X-ray emission from A stars (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Results are reported from the combined CfA Stellar Survey of selected bright A stars and an Einstein Guest Observer program for Ap and Am stars. In an initial report of results from the CfA Stellar Surveys by Vaiana et al. (1981) it was noted that the spread in observed X-ray luminosities among the few A stars observed was quite large. The reasons for this large spread was studied by Pallavicini et al. (1981). It was found that the X-ray emission from normal stars is related very strongly to bolometric luminosity for early-type stars and to rotation rate for late-type stars. However, an exception to this rule has been the apparently anomalous behavior of A star X-ray emission, for which the large spread in luminosity showed no apparent correlation with either bolometric luminosity or stellar rotation rate. In the present study, it is shown that the level of emission from normal A stars agrees with the correlation observed for O and B stars.

    Ultraviolet and X-ray observations of NGC 2264 (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: An IUE satellite search is reported for chromospheric emission in the UV spectra of the brightest pre-main sequence stars the open cluster NGC 2264. Einstein X-ray observations to search for variability of the bright O7 V ((f)) star S Mon = W131, which may be the most massive member of the cluster, are also reported. Fifteen cluster members of spectral type B-K, ranging in age from a million to ten million yr, were observed in the ultraviolet. The only star exhibiting chromospheric emission is W79, a faint, heavily veiled T Tauri star that lies below the main sequence of NGC 2264. The observations are consistent with the generally accepted idea that chromospheric activity of late-type stars subsides with age.

    X-ray emission from an Ap star /Phi Herculis/ and a late B star /Pi Ceti/ (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Using the HEAO 1 soft X-ray sky survey, a search was conducted for X-ray emission from 18 stars in the spectral range B5-A7. The detection of 0.25 keV X-ray sources consistent with the positions of Pi Ceti, a normal B7 V star, and Phi Herculis, a classic Ap star was reported. The detection of these stars argues for large mass motions in the upper layers of stars in this spectral range, and argues against radiative diffusion as the source of abundance anomalies in Ap stars.

    Evidence for a massive X-ray halo around Markarian 541 (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Mkn 541, a Type I Seyfert galaxy, has been detected as an X-ray source with the rotating modulation collimator on SAS 3. The galaxy, which is identified as the optical counterpart of 4U 2351+06, has an X-ray flux of 3 x 10 to the -11th erg/sq cm per sec, which corresponds to a luminosity of 2 x 10 to the 44th erg/s at 240 Mpc. Evidence is presented that the X-rays are emitted in a volume of diameter 150 kpc. A variety of possible emission mechanisms are investigated, and it is suggested that the X-rays are caused by thermal bremsstrahlung from 500 billion solar masses of hot gas trapped in the gravitational well of Mkn 541, which implies that the mass of the galaxy exceeds 5 trillion solar masses. The hot gas can be explained as the accumulated ejecta of the Seyfert nucleus.

    An observation of the diffuse soft X-ray/extreme-ultraviolet background (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Results are reported for observations of diffuse radiation in the spectral bands from 114 to 150 A and from 44 to 120 A, which were made with rocket-borne proportional counters in areas of the sky near galactic coordinates 150 deg longitude, -15 deg latitude and 189 deg longitude, 3 deg latitude. The observed fluxes are 0.125 photon per sq cm/s/sr/eV at 180 eV, which is consistent with previous measurements, and 3.2 photons per sq cm/s/sr/eV at 100 eV, which indicates a steeply rising spectrum. It is noted that these fluxes are significantly smaller than those detected by Yentis et al. (1972), and the differences are attributed to either a terrestrial origin of the fluxes or the direction of observation. Constraints are placed on the parameters of simple emission models of celestial origin, and a rigorous upper limit is determined for the space density of white dwarfs at a blackbody temperature of at least 100,000 K.

    Extreme ultraviolet reflection efficiencies of diamond-turned aluminum, polished nickel, and evaporated gold surfaces (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Measured reflection efficiencies are presented for flat samples of diamond-turned aluminum, nickel, and evaporated gold surfaces fabricated by techniques suited for EUV telescopes. The aluminum samples were 6.2-cm-diameter disks of 6061-T6, the electroless nickel samples were formed by plating beryllium disks with 7.5-microns of Kanigen. Gold samples were produced by coating the aluminum and nickel samples with 5 strips of evaporated gold. Reflection efficiencies are given for grazing angles in the 5-75 degree range. The results indicate that for wavelengths over about 100 A, the gold-coated nickel samples yield highest efficiencies. For shorter wavelengths, the nickel samples yield better efficiencies. 500 A is found to be the optimal gold thickness.

    Very high X-ray efficiency from a blazed grating (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The efficiency of X-ray diffraction from reflection gratings has been investigated experimentally using a gold-coated plane grating of 25 x 120 mm with a nominal blaze angle of 21 deg in a conical diffraction mount. Results show that conical diffraction is capable of producing very high dispersion efficiencies. The peak of first order at 13.3 A is 40%; at 44 A, the peak is 34%. The most immediate application of this result is to X-ray astronomy where sources are weak.
