Kavli Affiliate: Peter G. Ford | First 5 Authors: Anil Bhardwaj, Ronald F. Elsner, J. Hunter Waite, Jr., G. Randall Gladstone, Thomas E. Cravens | Summary: Using the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS), the Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) observed the Saturnian system for one rotation of the planet (~37 ks) on 20 January, 2004, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: Keith Schwab | First 5 Authors: Salman Habib, Tanmoy Bhattacharya, Andrew Doherty, Benjamin Greenbaum, Asa Hopkins | Summary: The vast majority of the literature dealing with quantum dynamics is concerned with linear evolution of the wave function or the density matrix. A complete dynamical description requires a full understanding of the evolution of […]

Kavli Affiliate: Peter G. Ford | First 5 Authors: Anil Bhardwaj, Ronald F. Elsner, J. Hunter Waite Jr, G. Randall Gladstone, Thomas E. Cravens | Summary: Saturn was observed by Chandra ACIS-S on 20 and 26-27 January 2004 for one full Saturn rotation (10.7 hr) at each epoch. We report here the first observation of […]
Kavli Affiliate: P. C. Joss | First 5 Authors: A. Majczyna, J. Madej, P. C. Joss, A. Rozanska, | 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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew P. Rasmussen | First 5 Authors: Thierry Lanz, Gisela A. Telis, Marc Audard, Frits Paerels, Andrew P. Rasmussen | Summary: We present a non-LTE model atmosphere analysis of Chandra HRC-S/LETG and XMM-Newton RGS spectroscopy of the prototypical supersoft source CAL 83 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Taken with a 16-month interval, the […]

Kavli Affiliate: Peter Michelson | First 5 Authors: Roger W. Romani, David Sowards-Emmerd, Lincoln Greenhill, Peter Michelson, | Summary: We report the discovery of a radio-loud flat-spectrum QSO at z=5.47 with properties similar to those of the EGRET gamma-ray blazars. This source is the brightest radio QSO at z>5, with a pc-scale radio jet and […]
Kavli Affiliate: George W. Clark | First 5 Authors: George W. 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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: P. C. Joss | First 5 Authors: J. Madej, M. Pietrachowicz, P. C. Joss, A. Majczyna, A. Rozanska | Summary: We explore photometric properties of hypothetical iron core white dwarfs and compute their expected colors in UBVRI Johnson broadband system. Atmospheres of iron core WDs in this paper consist of pure iron covered […]
