    The case for a burst from 3U 0614+09 (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: A single flare event with a rise time of about 7 s and a decay time of approximately 40 s was observed by the Goddard cosmic X-ray spectroscopy experiment on OSO-8 during observations of 3U 0614+09 in September 1975. The possibility is discussed that the source was 3U 0614+09, which has been compared with the low-mass binary Sco X-1. The spectra during the event could be fitted with blackbody (kT = 0.8-1.1 keV) or thermal bremsstrahlung (kT = 1.1-2.5 keV) models with absorption by cool material. In the blackbody model the source was of the order of 1 million cm in size.

    Galactic distribution of X-ray burst sources (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Data on X-ray bursts recorded by the OSO-8 and SAS-3 satellites and criteria (rise time, duration, recurrence) for X-ray bursts are examined in a study of possible correlation between the galactic longitude distribution of X-ray burst sources and globular clusters. Correlations are weak, with only two X-ray bursts sources (NGC6624 and the rapid burster) coinciding with globular clusters, another seven possibly coinciding, most not correlated. Ad hoc explanations (globular clusters obscured by dust clouds, bursts associated with remnants of disrupted globular clusters evolved into supermassive black holes) are considered briefly.

    X-ray line emission from the supernova remnant G292.0 + 1.8 (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The Solid State Spectrometer on the Einstein Observatory has detected line emission from Mg, Si and S in the thermal X-ray spectrum of the supernova remnant G292.0 + 1.8. An over-abundance of sulfur and a probable under-abundance of iron relative to their solar values is indicated by the data. The X-ray and optical data for this object support an interpretation of emission originating in ejecta from the comparatively recent explosion of a massive (about 20-solar-mass) progenitor star.

    The X-ray pulsars 4U 1145-61 and 1E 1145.1-6141 (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Observations of the neighboring X-ray pulsars 4U 1145-61 and 1E 1145.1-6141 obtained by OSO 8, HEAO 1 and the Einstein Observatory between 1975 and 1979 are reported. A temporal analysis of Einstein Solid State Spectrometer and Monitor Proportional Counter data, OSO 8 A and C detector data and HEAO 1 A-2(3) experiment data confirms the presence of two periodicites at 291 and 297 sec in the region, with the shorter period located within 3 arcmin of 4U 1145-61. Observations indicate the spectrum of 4U 1145-61 to obey a power law with an index of 1.5 out to at least 60 keV, with little variation with pulse phase, and a 500-eV EW iron line at 6.7 keV. The spectrum of the other source is found to be more absorbed. Similarities between the pulsars are noted, and it is suggested that they may be the result of pulsar formation in a homogeneous cloud of progenitors.

    X-ray observations of Algol (1980)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The Solid State Spectrometer on Einstein has been used to study Algol. Two observations six months apart were made, both including a primary optical eclipse. No corresponding X-ray eclipses were seen. During the second observation the source was flaring and was on the average a factor of three brighter. The spectrum on both occasions was consistent with a two-component thermal equilibrium model with temperatures of approximately 7.5 and 40 million degrees. Attempts to insert a third component indicate the temperature distribution to be bimodal. Models for the X-ray emission are discussed and it is suggested that it most likely originates from an active corona surrounding the K star.

    X-ray spectra of Hercules X-1. I - Iron line fluorescence from a subrelativistic shell (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The X-ray spectrum of Her X-1 was observed in the energy range from 2 to 24 keV from August 29 to September 3, 1975. Emission features are observed near the K-alpha iron-line energy which exhibit both broadening and a double line structure. The total luminosity in these features is about 4 by 10 to the 35th power ergs/s. Iron line fluorescence from an opaque cool (not exceeding 1 million K) shell of material at the Alfven surface provides the necessary luminosity in this feature. The double line structure and the line energy width can be due to Doppler shifts if the shell is forced to corotate with the pulsar at a radius of at least 800 million cm. Implications of this model regarding physical conditions near Her X-1 are discussed.

    Observations of intensity and linear polarization of CTB 80 at 6 and 2.8 cm (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: The paper presents observations of the distribution of intensity and linear polarization over the radio source CTB 80 at 6 and 2.8 cm. The physical nature of the source is examined, particularly the relation between the strong central component and a ridgelike structure that extends across the northern half in the E-W direction. The structure, nonthermal spectrum, and polarization of the central component are found to be very similar to those of a supernova remnant, but the ridge is shown to be unlike any feature of any other SNR. It is suggested that the ridge may have resulted from expansion of the remnant shell into a dense interstellar cloud or, alternatively, that CTB 80 might be a nearby extragalactic radio source similar to Centaurus A.

    Spectral variability in the X-ray pulsar GX 1 + 4 (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Observations of the galactic-center-region hard X-ray source GX 1 + 4 by the GSFC X-ray spectroscopy experiment on OSO-8 confirm that GX 1 + 4 is a slow X-ray pulsar. The amount of absorption by cold matter in the spectrum of GX 1 + 4 varies significantly within a 24-hour period, which is typical of many X-ray binary systems. The light curve for the pulsations from GX 1 + 4 appears to be energy-dependent.

    A two-component X-ray spectrum from SMC X-1 (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: HEAO 1 A-2 and Einstein Solid State Spectrometer (SSS) observations of SMC X-1 are presented. An unpulsed soft component is found with a blackbody temperature of 0.16 keV and an area for the emission region of 10 to the 15th to 10 to the 17th sq cm. The hard X-ray component is pulsed; the phase-averaged spectrum is a power law with alpha of about 0.5 up to 17 keV, above which it steepens. The SSS sets an upper limit of less than 4 x 10 to the 21st H/sq cm to any absorption, and is consistent with that expected from the wind of Sk 160. Absorption dips with a timescale of several hundred seconds are seen immediately following an eclipse exit, and are probably caused by inhomogeneities in the wind of Sk 160.
