    Observations of Cygnus X-3 by ANS (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-04-18
    Description: The hard X-ray experiment (1 - 28 keV) on ANS observed Cygnus X-3 in November 1974, and in May 1975. The average flux intensities for these time periods were found to be 22.4 + or - 0.5 cts/sec and 12.8 + or - 0.3 cts/sec (1.3 - 7.1 keV), the former being the highest average value ever observed. The spectrum studies show an excess in the flux above the fitted continuum which can be interpreted as a line emission of FeXXIV and/or FeXXV, at approximately 6.5 keV. The strength of this feature varied in phase with the 4.8 hr X-ray modulation, and remained at a constant relative intensity. The period of the X-ray modulation is refined to 0.1996813 + or - 0.0000006 day and obtained at a 2 sigma upper limit to a continuous change in the period of 50 to the minus 13th power/sec. This new limit places serious constraints on several models for this object.

    The X-ray structure of Centaurus A (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The Einstein X-ray observatory imaging detectors have found X-ray emission associated with several components of the nearby radio galaxy Cen A = NGC 5128: (1) the compact nucleus; (2) an X-ray jet pointed toward the NE radio lobes; (3) the middle NE radio lobe; (4) the disk or dust lane; and (5) diffuse emission extending several arcmin around the nucleus. The intensity of the nucleus changed by a factor of seven over six months. The X-ray jet is considered in terms of thermal, inverse Compton, and synchrotron models. The emission of the NE radio lobe is greater than that expected from inverse Compton or synchrotron processes. Two ridges of emission are found along each edge of the dust lane, within several arcmin of the nucleus. The diffuse X-ray component has a luminosity which is too high to be due to bulge population X-ray sources, but which may be produced by main sequence stars under appropriate circumstances.

    Observations of Cygnus X-1 in its two intensity states by ANS (1976)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The hard X-ray experiment (1 - 28 keV) on ANS, observed Cygnus X-1 in November 1974, and in May 1975, putting in evidence the two dramatically different states of this object. The average intensity in November was 15 cts/sec, and the observations showed remarkable features in the X-ray light curve and in the spectrum, which were correlated with the 5.6 days period of HDE226868. The May observations showed a count rate of approximately 80-100 cts/sec, with fluctuations up to approximately 130 cts/sec, uncorrelated with the spectroscopic binary. The May X-ray spectrum was much softer than the November one, and possibly was made up of two components.

    Spectrophotometric observations of Molonglo radio source identifications (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The paper presents spectrophotometric observations of 76 optical objects identified with radio sources from the MC2 and MC3 catalogs. Line intensities, equivalent widths, line widths, and optical spectral indices are presented for 44 objects confirmed as quasi-stellar objects. The statistical and physical properties of the Molonglo sample are briefly discussed.

    Simultaneous X-ray and optical observations of the 7.7 second X-ray pulsar 4U 1626-67 (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Simultaneous X-ray and optical observations of the 7.7-s X-ray pulsar 4U 1626-67, obtained during May 29-31, 1978, reveal the presence of (1) intense, correlated optical and X-ray flares and (2) 7.7-s optical pulsations which agree in phase with the 1-3 keV X-ray pulsations to within 0.5 s (two standard deviations) and which agree in period to within 0.001 s (one standard deviation). From these data it is concluded that a substantial fraction (a minimum of 8%) and possibly all of the optical emission is produced from within approximately 0.5 light sec or 1.5 x 10 to the 10th cm of the neutron star. Furthermore, the data rule out the possibility that this optical emission comes from the X-ray heated surface of a degenerate or nondegenerate dwarf companion. It most likely comes from an accretion disk.

    Optical identification of 2S 1417-62 (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The 17 s X-ray pulsar 2S 1417-62 has been identified with a V of approximately 16.9 mag OB star on the basis of an X-ray position obtained with the Einstein X-Ray Observatory and spectrophotometry with the 4-m telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. Strong H-alpha emission is observed as well as significant changes in X-ray luminosity. The optical counterpart may be either a Be or a B I star, but the H-alpha emission strength and galactic position suggest that a Be star is more likely. A Be star identification also further supports the limit of approximately 15 days or more on the system binary period obtained by Kelley et al. (1981) from pulse timing studies.

    Near-infrared images of MG 1131+0456 with the W. M. Keck telescope: Another dusty gravitational lens? (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: Images of the gravitational lens system MG 1131+0456 taken with the near-infrared camera on the W. M. Keck telescope in the J and K(sub s) bands show that the infrared counterparts of the compact radio structure are exceedingly red, with J - K greater than 4.2 mag. The J image reveals only the lensing galaxy, while the K(sub s) image shows both the lens and the infrared counterparts of the compact radio components. After subtracting the lensing galaxy from the K(sub s) image, the position and orientation of the compact components agree with their radio counterparts. The broad-band spectrum and observed brightness of the lens suggest a giant galaxy at a redshift of approximately 0.75, while the color of the quasar images suggests significant extinction by dust in the lens. There is a significant excess of faint objects within 20 sec of MG 1131+0456. Depending on their mass and redshifts, these objects could complicate the lensing potential considerably.

    OSSE observations of 1E 1740.7-2942 in 1992 September (1995)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: We present data on the galactic X-ray source 1E 1740.7-2942 from the Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSE) on board NASA's Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO). Episodes of increased low-energy gamma radiation have been reported from this source, including 1-day events in 1990 October and 1992 September. These events, of intensity 7 x 10(exp -3) and 4 x 10(exp -3) photons/sq cm/s, respectively, have been interpreted as broadened and redshifted positron annihilation radiation. OSSE conducted observations of the Galactic Center region during a 21-day interval from 1992 September 17 thru 1992 October 8. This includes the time of increased 200-450 keV emission from 1E 1740.7-2942 reported by SIGMA. The OSSE observations do not confirm this event. For the specific outburst recorded by SIGMA, 1992 Sep. 19.42-20.58 (UT), OSSE data provide an upper limit (3 sigma) of 2.4 x 10(exp -3) photons/sq cm/s.
