Chandra, XMM-Newton and HST observations of a transient in M31 with a possible asymmetric, precessing disc
DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stv551 Bibcode: 2015MNRAS.449.3426B

Murray, S. S.; Garcia, M. R.; Barnard, R.

The transient X-ray source CXOM31 004205.77+411330.43 exhibited several outbursts during our long-term monitoring campaign of approximately monthly observations of the M31 centre with Chandra. However, the decay profile appears to be unlike those observed from Galactic transients. We followed up the 2011 outburst with two ∼B band HST/ACS observati…

Page, M. J.

I describe a method for synthesizing photometric passbands for use with current and future X-ray instruments. The method permits the standardization of X-ray passbands and thus X-ray photometry between different instruments and missions. The method is illustrated by synthesizing a passband in the XMM-Newton European Photon Imaging Camera pn which …

Shock wave driven by CME evidenced by metric type II burst and EUV wave
DOI: 10.1016/j.asr.2015.07.029 Bibcode: 2015AdSpR..56.2804C

Selhorst, C. L.; Cunha-Silva, R. D.; Fernandes, F. C. R.

Solar type II radio bursts are produced by plasma oscillations in the solar corona as a result of shock waves. The relationship between type II bursts and coronal shocks is well evidenced by observations since the 1960s. However, the drivers of the shocks associated with type II events at metric wavelengths remain as a controversial issue among so…

Interpreting Ulysses data using inverse scattering theory: Oblique Alfvén waves
DOI: 10.1002/2014JA020770 Bibcode: 2015JGRA..120.1509W

Wheeler, Harry R.; Reynolds, M. A.; Hamilton, R. L.

Solitary wave structures observed by the Ulysses spacecraft in the solar wind were analyzed using both inverse scattering theory and direct numerical integration of the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) equation. Several of these structures were found to be consistent with soliton solutions of the DNLS equation. Such solitary structures have…

Relating field-aligned beams to inverted-V structures and visible auroras

The ion composition experiment on Cluster measures 3-D distributions in one spin of the spacecraft (4 s). These distributions often measure field-aligned ion beams (H+, He+ and O+) accelerated out of the ionosphere. The standard model of these beams relies on a quasi-static U-shaped potential model. The beams conta…

Dust processing in the Carina nebula region
DOI: 10.1016/j.pss.2015.03.025 Bibcode: 2015P&SS..116...84O

Onaka, Takashi; Okada, Yoko; Mori, Tamami I.

Dust processing in the Carina nebula is investigated based on mid- to far-infrared spectroscopy with Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). Mapping observations over a central 40 ×20 area of the nebula with PHT-S, SWS, and LWS onboard ISO not only reveal spectroscopically that the mid-infrared unidentified infrared (UIR) bands a…
