    Columbia/Einstein observations of galactic X-ray sources (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The imaging observations of galactic clusters are presented. These fall into three categories: pre-main-sequence stars in the Orion nebulae, isolated-main-and-post main-sequence stars, and supernova remnants SNR. In addition to SNR, approximately 30 sources were detected.

    A search for X-ray polarization in cosmic X-ray sources (1983)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Fifteen strong X-ray sources were observed by the X-ray polarimeters on board the OSO-8 satellite from 1975 to 1978. The final results of this search for X-ray polarization in cosmic sources are presented in the form of upper limits for the ten sources which are discussed elsewhere. These limits in all cases are consistent with a thermal origin for the X-ray emission.

    Gamma ray polarimetry (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Spectroscopic instruments currently being proposed may possess polarimetric capabilities which sould be nurtured and enhanced to permit characterization of basic emission mechanisms which are impossible using other techniques. Compton scattering and pair production detected the polarization of high energy (E is greater than 50 keV) protons in laboratory experiments. The polarization properties of a detection system consisting of 19 germanium crystals in a closed packed array are examined and the advantages of such a detector over Thompson scattering are discussed. The possiblity of using pair production to detect polarization of high energy gamma rays, and the associated modulation factors are discussed. The central difficulty involved in using pair production polarimeters in astrophysical applications is that the typical opening of the electron or positron direction with respect to the incident photon aircitron is small, of order E/sq mc. Multiple scattering in the material used to convert the photons to an electron positron pair causes deviations in the direction of the electron and positron.

    A study of four soft X-ray enhancements (1977)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Four enhanced regions of diffuse X-ray emission are studied in the 0.15-2 KeV band. Two regions are consistent with clouds of plasma with a temperature of 1 million K about 50 pc in diameter at a distance of 150 pc. These clouds require a particle density of only a factor of 3 above an ambient hot component which may fill a substantial portion of the galactic disk in the vicinity of the sun. Another region near Eridanus is consistent with a low integrated amount of atomic hydrogen along the direction of observation, thereby permitting a greater path length of plasma to contribute to the observed flux. Finally, an extended region in Centaurus shows a temperature of about 20 million K and may be an old supernova remnant expanding into a low-density region of the galactic disk.

    Soft X-rays from the Large Magellanic Cloud - Implications on the origin of the diffuse X-ray background (1976)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: A total soft X-ray luminosity of approximately 10 to the 38th power ergs/s was observed from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) during pointed rocket observations in November 1973. Simple spectral parameters are derived and discussed. Upper limits at 1 KeV to several known LMC point sources are presented. A diffuse bar source reported previously was not detected. Strong limits are placed on the fraction of halo and extragalactic diffuse X-ray flux observed in the direction of the LMC due to the lack of correlation of the 0.25-KeV diffuse flux with interstellar hydrogen in the Galaxy and in the LMC.
