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 […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert Wood | First 5 Authors: Gad Getz, Hilah Gal, Itai Kela, Eytan Domany, Dan A. Notterman | Summary: We present and review Coupled Two Way Clustering, a method designed to mine gene expression data. The method identifies submatrices of the total expression matrix, whose clustering analysis reveals partitions of samples (and genes) […]
Kavli Affiliate: Daniel S. Akerib | First 5 Authors: Daniel S. Akerib, Sean M. Carroll, Marc Kamionkowski, Steven Ritz, | Summary: The past few years have seen dramatic breakthroughs and spectacular and puzzling discoveries in astrophysics and cosmology. In many cases, the new observations can only be explained with the introduction of new fundamental physics. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Yukari Ito | First 5 Authors: Yukari Ito, , , , | Summary: There are many generalizations of the McKay correspondence for higher dimensional Gorenstein quotient singularities and there are some applications to compute the topological invariants today. But some of the invariants are completely different from the classical invariants, in particular for […]
Kavli Affiliate: Claude Canizares | First 5 Authors: David Huenemoerder, Claude Canizares, Kevin Tibbetts, , | Summary: We observed AR Lac, an eclipsing RS CVn binary star, with the Chandra High Energy Grating Spectrometer for a total of 100 ks divided into six intervals covering both quadratures and eclipses. We repeated observations at each phase. […]
