TL;DR: In this paper, the European Photon Imaging Camera (EPIC) consortium has provided the focal plane instruments for the three X-ray mirror systems on XMM-Newton, including two cameras with a reflecting grating spectrometer in the optical path equipped with MOS type CCDs as focal plane detectors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Near-infrared flares from accreting gas around the supermassive black hole at the Galactic Centre
Reinhard Genzel,Rainer Schödel,T. Ott,Andreas Eckart,Tal Alexander,Francois Lacombe,Daniel Rouan,Bernd Aschenbach +7 more
TL;DR: High-resolution infrared observations of Sagittarius A* reveal ‘quiescent’ emission and several flares, and traces very energetic electrons or moderately hot gas within the innermost accretion region.
Book ChapterDOI

TL;DR: The Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer (CDS) as mentioned in this paper was designed to probe the solar atmosphere through the detection of spectral emission lines in the extreme ultraviolet wavelength range 150-800 A. By observing the intensities of selected lines and line profiles, the authors derived temperature, density, flow and abundance information for the plasmas in the solar ionosphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of explosion fragments outside the Vela supernova remnant shock-wave boundary
TL;DR: In this article, an X-ray image of the Vela supernova remnant is presented, which shows that the pulsar is close to the centre, and therefore most probably resulted from the same explosion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Discovery of Non-Thermal X-Rays from the Northwest Shell of the New SNR RX J1713.7-3946: The Second SN 1006?
Katsuji Koyama,Kenzo Kinugasa,Keiichi Matsuzaki,Mamiko Nishiuchi,Mutsumi Sugizaki,Ken'ichi Torii,Shigeo Yamauchi,Bernd Aschenbach +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported on the ASCA results of a featureless X-ray spectrum from RX J1713.7-3946, a new shell-like SNR discovered with the ROSAT all-sky survey.
