Model atmospheres and X-ray spectra of iron-rich bursting neutron stars. II. Iron rich Comptonized Spectra

Kavli Affiliate: P. C. Joss | Summary:This paper presents the set of plane-parallel model atmosphere equations for a very hot neutron star (X-ray burst source). The model equations assume both hydrostatic and radiative equilibrium, and the equation of state of an ideal gas in local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE). The equation of radiative transfer includes terms […]

Missing Quasiparticles and the Chemical Potential Puzzle in the Doping Evolution of the Cuprate Superconductors

Kavli Affiliate: Kyle Shen | First 5 Authors: K. M. Shen, K. M. Shen, , , | Summary: The evolution of Ca$_2-x$Na$_x$CuO$_2$Cl$_2$ from Mott insulator to superconductor was studied using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. By measuring both the excitations near the Fermi energy as well as non-bonding states, we tracked the doping dependence of the electronic […]

Chandra Observations and Monte Carlo Simulations of the Grain-Scattered Halo of the Binary X-Ray Pulsar 4U 1538-52

Kavli Affiliate: George Clark | Summary:Properties of the X-ray halo of the eclipsing X-ray pulsar 4U 1538-52 are derived from a 25 ksec observation by the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. Profiles of the halo, compiled in two energy ranges, 2 to 4 keV and 4 to 6 keV, and three time intervals before and after an […]
