Description:
Table 1 lists the sample of 173 stars observed for this study. They are selected from the Bright Star Catalogue (Cat. <V/50>), with the following selection criteria: - Spectral type between A8 and G2; no spectral peculiarities noted; not double in spectral type classification (e.g., HR 32 with spectral type F2V+F6V is excluded); - Luminosity class V; - Right ascension between 0h and 2h, or between 14h and 24 h, declination south of +10 degrees (defining the region on the sky visible during the appointed observation times); - Binaries for which both components occurred in the BSC are excluded, if the separation is less than 10". Not listed are five stars for which no (Walraven photometric and ROSAT X-ray) data are available. These are HR 591, HR 5542, HR 6593, HR 8245 and HR 8735. Table 2 lists the Walraven photometric (VBLUW) data for all but four stars from Table 1. Also listed in Table 2 are the effective temperature, surface gravity and the reddening, as derived from comparison with theoretical colours. Table 5 lists the ROSAT All Sky Survey data for all but 11 stars from Table 1. For a description of the Walraven photometric system, see e.g. <GCPD/11>

X-ray, opt. & radio SEDs of Fermi blazars

Description:
In this paper, multiwavelength data are compiled for a sample of 1425 Fermi blazars to calculate their spectral energy distributions (SEDs). A parabolic function, log({nu}F_{nu}_)=P_1_(log{nu}-P_2_)^2^+P_3_, is used for SED fitting. Synchrotron peak frequency (log{nu}_p_), spectral curvature (P_1_), peak flux ({nu}_p_F_{nu}p_), and integrated flux ({nu}F_{nu}_) are successfully obtained for 1392 blazars (461 flat-spectrum radio quasars [FSRQs], 620 BL Lacs [BLs], and 311 blazars of uncertain type [BCUs]; 999 sources have known redshifts). Monochromatic luminosity at radio 1.4GHz, optical R band, X-ray at 1keV and {gamma}-ray at 1GeV, peak luminosity, integrated luminosity, and effective spectral indices of radio to optical ({alpha}_RO_) and optical to X-ray ({alpha}_OX_) are calculated. The "Bayesian classification" is employed to log{nu}_p_ in the rest frame for 999 blazars with available redshift, and the results show that three components are enough to fit the log{nu}_p_ distribution; there is no ultra-high peaked subclass. Based on the three components, the subclasses of blazars using the acronyms of Abdo+ (2010, J/ApJ/716/30) are classified, and some mutual correlations are also studied.

X-ray_peak-BCG offset for PSZ1 clusters

Description:
We want to characterize the dynamical state of galaxy clusters detected with the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect by Planck and compare them with the dynamical state of clusters selected in X-rays survey. We analysed a representative subsample of the Planck SZ catalogue, containing the 132 clusters with the highest signal to noise ratio and characterize their dynamical state using as an indicator the projected offset between the peak of the X-ray emission and the position of the Brightest cluster galaxy. We compare the distribution of this indicator for the Planck SZ-selected sample and three X-ray-selected samples (HIFLUGCS, MACS and REXCESS). The distributions are significantly different and the fraction of relaxed objects is smaller in the Planck sample (52+/-4 per cent) than in X-ray samples (~=74 per cent) We interpret this result as an indication of different selection effects affecting X-rays (e.g. 'cool core bias') and SZ surveys of galaxy clusters.

Title:
X-ray point sources near the Galactic Center
Short Name:
J/ApJ/706/223
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the log N-logS and spatial distributions of X-ray point sources in seven Galactic bulge (GB) fields within 4{deg} from the Galactic center (GC). We compare the properties of 1159 X-ray point sources discovered in our deep (100ks) Chandra observations of three low extinction Window fields near the GC with the X-ray sources in the other GB fields centered around Sgr B2, Sgr C, the Arches Cluster, and Sgr A* using Chandra archival data. To reduce the systematic errors induced by the uncertain X-ray spectra of the sources coupled with field-and-distance-dependent extinction, we classify the X-ray sources using quantile analysis and estimate their fluxes accordingly. We also compare the total X-ray and infrared surface brightness using the Chandra and Spitzer observations of the regions. GB X-ray sources can be of the same or similar type. Their X-ray luminosity and spectral properties support the idea that the most likely candidate is magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs), primarily intermediate polars (IPs).
24785. X-ray polarization predictions in blazars

Title:
X-ray polarization predictions in blazars
Short Name:
J/ApJ/880/29
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
X-ray polarization should provide new probes of magnetic field geometry and acceleration physics near the base of blazar jets, but near-future missions will have limited sensitivity. We thus use existing lower energy data and X-ray variability measurements in the context of a basic synchro-Compton model to predict the X-ray polarization level and the probability of detection success for individual sources, listing the most attractive candidates for an Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer campaign. We find that, as expected, several high-peak blazars such as Mrk 421 can be easily measured in 100ks exposures. Most low-peak sources should only be accessible to triggered campaigns during bright flares. Surprisingly, a few intermediate peak sources can have anomalously high X-ray polarization and thus are attractive targets.

Description:
We present the long term evolution of the timing properties of the black hole candidate Cygnus X-1 in the 0.002-128 Hz frequency range as monitored from 1998 to 2001 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). For most of this period the source was in its hard state.
24787. X-ray properties of A,B-types, T-Tauri stars & YSOs

Title:
X-ray properties of A,B-types, T-Tauri stars & YSOs
Short Name:
J/AJ/162/153
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We use X-ray and infrared observations to study the properties of three classes of young stars in the Carina Nebula: intermediate-mass (2-5M{sun}) pre-main-sequence stars (IMPS; i.e., intermediate-mass T Tauri stars), late-B and A stars on the zero-age main sequence (AB), and lower-mass T Tauri stars (TTS). We divide our sources among these three subclassifications and further identify disk-bearing young stellar objects versus diskless sources with no detectable infrared (IR) excess emission using IR (1-8{mu}m) spectral energy distribution modeling. We then perform X-ray spectral fitting to determine the hydrogen-absorbing column density (N_H_), absorption-corrected X-ray luminosity (L_X_), and coronal plasma temperature (kT) for each source. We find that the X-ray spectra of both IMPS and TTS are characterized by similar kT and N_H_, and on average L_X_/L_bol_~4x10^-4^. IMPS are systematically more luminous in X-rays (by ~0.3dex) than all other subclassifications, with median L_X_=2.5x10^31^erg/s, while AB stars of similar masses have X-ray emission consistent with TTS companions. These lines of evidence converge on a magnetocoronal flaring source for IMPS X-ray emission, a scaled-up version of the TTS emission mechanism. IMPS therefore provide powerful probes of isochronal ages for the first ~10Myr in the evolution of a massive stellar population, because their intrinsic, coronal X-ray emission decays rapidly after they commence evolving along radiative tracks. We suggest that the most luminous (in both X-rays and IR) IMPS could be used to place empirical constraints on the location of the intermediate-mass stellar birth line.

Description:
ROSAT spectra of 86 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with a broad range of optical FeII strengths have been analyzed. The results of the spectral analysis have been combined with optical and radio data as well as with optical emission line properties collected from the literature to understand the origin of the strong FeII emission and the nature of the soft X-ray excess.
24789. X-ray properties of AGN from the CJF sample
ID:
ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/A+A/476/759
Title:
X-ray properties of AGN from the CJF sample
Short Name:
J/A+A/476/759
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We present the soft X-ray properties obtained in the ROSAT All-Sky survey and from pointed PSPC observations for the AGN in the complete flux-density limited Caltech-Jodrell Bank flat spectrum sample (hereafter CJF). CJF is a VLBI survey (VLBA observations at 5GHz) of 293 AGN with detailed information on jet component motion. We investigate and discuss the soft X-ray properties of this AGN sample and examine the correlations between X-ray and VLBI properties, test beaming scenarios, and search for the discriminating properties between the sub-samples detected and not detected by ROSAT. Comparing the observed and the predicted X-ray fluxes by assuming an Inverse Compton (IC) origin for the observed X-rays, we compute the beaming or Doppler factor, {delta}_IC_, for the CJF sources and compare it with the equipartition Doppler factor, {delta}_EQ_. We further contrast the Doppler factors with other beaming indicators derived from the VLBI observations, such as the value of the expansion velocity, and the observed and intrinsic brightness temperature. We calculate two different core dominance parameters (R): the ratio of total VLBI flux to single-dish flux, R_V_, and the ratio of the VLBI core-component flux to single-dish flux, R_C_. In addition, we investigate the large-scale radio structure of the AGN and the difference between the pc- and kpc-scale structure (misalignment) with regard to the X-ray observations.

Description:
We present a detailed X-ray spectral analysis of the sources in the 1Ms catalog of the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS, J/ApJS/139/369) taking advantage of optical spectroscopy and photometric redshifts for 321 extragalactic sources out of the total sample of 347 sources. As a default spectral model, we adopt a power law with slope Gamma with an intrinsic redshifted absorption N_H_, a fixed Galactic absorption and an unresolved Fe emission line. For 82 X-ray bright sources, we are able to perform the X-ray spectral analysis leaving both Gamma and N_H_ free.
