活动星系核(AGN)是宇宙中最奇特的天体之一。它是真正意义上的全波天体,其中X射线波段的发射功率占到全波段功率的50%左右。AGN的X射线辐射研究涉及天体物理中的最基本问题,例如能量产生、辐射机制和宇宙论等,而Chandra X射线卫星的高分辨率图像和光谱对这一研究有着重要作用。以Chandra卫星的部分观测结果为例,简要介绍了几类不同类型AGN的X射线辐射研究进展:(1)宽吸收线类星体APM08279+5255(z=3.91)的X射线谱分析,以及高红移类星体的观测概况;(2)Seyfert星系NGC 4151延展X射线发射问题的解决,及NGC 1068X射线辐射与光学波段的高激发态发射线([OⅢ]λ5007)有很强相关性的发现;(3)6个BLLac天体样本的X射线环境分析;(4)射电星系X射线喷流的观测等。  相似文献

星系团PKS 0745-191中射电气体对X射线气体的加热   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
对星系团中相对论性粒子的能量演化做了数值计算,在此基础上,联合分析Chandra卫星数据和VLA射电观测结果,计算了星系团PKS0745-191中高能射电气体对X射线气体的加热作用,发现在射电气体幂律谱能量下限为0.001erg时,射电气体对X射线气体的加热不足以补充X射线气体的辐射能损.然后在计算研究了不同能量下限时射电气体对X射线气体的加热作用,并估计了射电气体的能量下限.  相似文献

报告了Seyfert1 .9星系NGC52 6A的Chandra观测结果。高分辨率的图象第一次发现两个软X射线核 ,两核所在方向看起来与中心吸积盘垂直、沿喷流方向。谱分析再次证实NGC52 6是一个X射线“平谱源”。两套辐射模型均可很好拟和X谱 ,其一由一个热成分和两个吸收成分组成 ,表明中心核区必定被严重吸收、导致X谱变得平坦 ;另一个由两个热成分和一个反射成分组成 ,与新发现的双软X核一致 ,并同样能解释平谱现象。要从两者之中作出正确选择 ,需要光学偏振观测。  相似文献

在早期的文章中,基于耀变体(Blazar)的知识,我们预言了在射电噪活动星系核(AGN)中心10 kpc范围内X射线喷流的存在.钱得拉(Chandra)卫星最近对低功率射电星系的X射线观测与我们的预言相一致.在本文中我们研究了kpc尺度喷流中的电子加速,并建议通过对强的FR Ⅱ射电星系中所预言的X射线喷流的钱得拉卫星的X射线的观测,来研究红的耀变体中的康普顿冷却以及在内部致密喷流和大尺度延伸喷流间环境的不同.以上的研究可以进一步检验我们的关于射电噪活动星系核中kpc尺度X射线喷流的模型.  相似文献

正在进行的实验室天体物理测量解决了X射线天文学的一些问题,这些实验产生了大量可靠的原子数据,它们既可用于电荷分布中电离与复合截面的计算,又可用于对X射线谱线形成的线表、激发截面及双电子复合系数的理解。另有一部分实验注重于解决天体观测的难题,以及验证现有的和寻找新的X射线谱线诊断。讨论了上述实验产生的数据类型,并展示了实验室测量如何为卫星(ASCA、EUVE、Chandra、XMM和ASTRO-E2)观测提供实验依据.  相似文献

The ROSAT All-Sky Survey(RASS) represents one of the most complete and sensitive soft Xray all-sky surveys to date. However, the deficient positional accuracy of the RASS Bright Source Catalog(BSC) and subsequent lack of firm optical identifications affect multi-wavelength studies of X-ray sources.The widely used positional errors σpos based on the Tycho Reference Catalog(Tycho-1) have previously been applied for identifying objects in the optical band. The considerably sharper Chandra view covers a fraction of RASS sources, whose σpos could be improved by utilizing the sub-arcsec positional accuracy of Chandra observations. We cross-match X-ray objects between the BSC and Chandra sources extracted from the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer(ACIS) archival observations. A combined list of counterparts(BSCx ACIS) with Chandra spatial positions weighted by the X-ray flux of multiple counterparts is employed to evaluate and improve the former identifications of BSC when used with other surveys. Based on these identification evaluations, we suggest that the point-source likeness of BSC sources and INS(isolated neutron star) candidates should be carefully reconsidered.  相似文献

利用星系团PKS 0745—191中心区域的Chandra数据,研究了在中心星系的西边且沿着射电结构而分布的一团明亮X射线气体的性质,发现这团气体是低温而高密的;另由射电观测计算发现射电气体在中心星系的西边压强梯度要大于东边,这说明那团 X射线冷气体与射电气体之间存在相互作用.该冷气体可能是由射电浮力泡从中心星系带出;或者是外围冷气体受到了射电气体的支撑及扰动而形成.进一步,假设气体处在压强重力平衡状态,计算了中心区域的X射线气体的体积占有率为b=0.69±0.28,并且讨论了射电气体所包含的相对论性粒子的性质以及射电气体膨胀对冷流的影响.  相似文献

We present a study of a fossil cluster,SDSS J0150–1005(z 0.364),with high spatial resolution based on the imaging spectroscopic analysis of Chandra observations.The Chandra X-ray image shows a relaxed and symmetric morphology,which indicates that SDSS J0150–1005 is a well-developed galaxy cluster with no sign of a recent merger.According to the isothermal model,its global gas temperature is 5.73±0.80 keV,and the virial mass is 6.23±1.34×1014M⊙.Compared with the polytropic temperature model,the mass calculated based on the isothermal model is overestimated by 49%±11.The central gas entropy,S0.1 r200=143.9±18.3 keV cm2,is significantly lower than the average value of normal galaxy clusters with similar temperatures.Our results indicate that SDSS J0150–1005 formed during an early epoch.  相似文献

Chandra observations of the Seyfert-2 galaxies NGC 2110 and NGC 7582 are presented. With the superb spatial resolution of Chandra we found that in NGC 7582 the soft (≤2 keV) and hard (2-10 keV) X-rays are emitted in different regions, consistent with the report by Xue et al. By comparing the present X-ray data with the previous infrared data, we determined that the soft X-ray region is the site of starburst activities. We found no significant temporal variations during our observations. We confirm the previous finding that NGC 2110 and NGC 7582 are flat-spectrum sources. We argue that the flat spectra may result from a cold absorbing material such as envisaged in the “dual absorbed” model. Strong Fe Kα emission feature is detected in 6-7keV. Its equivalent width is so large that it cannot be reproduced by using the Galactic column density of - 10^22 cm^-2.  相似文献

We present an analysis of the diffuse soft X-ray emission from the nuclear region of M51 combining both XMM-Newton RGS and Chandra data.Most of the RGS spectrum of M51 can be fitted with a thermal model with a temperature of~0.5 ke V except for the O VII triplet,which is forbidden-line dominated.The Fe L-shell lines peak around the southern cloud,where the O VIII and N VII Lyαlines also peak.In contrast,the peak of the O VII forbidden line is about 10′′offset from that of the other lines,indicating that it is from a spatially distinct component.The spatial distribution of the O VII triplet mapped by the Chandra data shows that most of the O VII triplet flux is located at faint regions near edges,instead of the southern cloud where other lines peak.This distribution of the O VII triplet is inconsistent with the photoionization model.Other mechanisms that could produce the anomalous O VII triplet,including a recombining plasma and charge exchange X-ray emission,are discussed.  相似文献

By creating and analyzing two dimensional gas temperature and abundance maps of the RGH 80 compact galaxy group with high-quality Chandra data,we detect a high-abundance (■0.7 Z⊙) arc,where the metal abundance is significantly higher than the surrounding regions by ■0.3Z⊙.This structure shows tight spatial correlations with the member galaxy PGC 046529,as well as with the arm-like feature identified on the X-ray image in the previous work of Randall et al.(2009).Since no apparent signature of AGN activity i...  相似文献

We study the structural and dynamical properties of A209 based on Chandra and XMM-Newton observations. We obtain detailed temperature, pressure, and entropy maps with the contour binning method, and find a hot region in the NW direction. The X-ray brightness residual map and corresponding temperature profiles reveal a possible shock front in the NW direction and a cold front feature in the SE direction. Combined with the galaxy luminosity density map we propose a weak merger scenario. A young su...  相似文献

We report the discovery of year-scale X-ray variation in the nuclear region of the M87 by reanalyze the eight Chandra observations from 2007 to 2008. The X-ray spectra are fitted and decomposed into disk and flaring components. This year-scale X-ray variability can be explained quite well by a simple clumpy accretion model. We conclude that the central super-massive black hole of M87 was accreting a cloud of ~ 0.5 M_⊙at that time.  相似文献

We analyzed the spectral properties and pulse profile of PSR J1811-1925,a pulsar located in the center of composite supernova remnant(SNR) G11.2-0.3,by using high timing resolution archival data from the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array Mission(NuSTAR).Analysis of archival Chandra data over different regions rules out the SNR shell as the site of the hard X-ray emission while spectral analysis indicates that the NuSTAR photons originate in the pulsar and its nebula.The pulse profile exhibit...  相似文献
