The gravitational redshift measured by Cottam, Paerels and Mendez for the neutron star (NS) in the low-mass X-ray binary EXO 0748-676 depends on the identification of an absorption line during a type I burst as the H$\alpha$ line from…
Habitability of an exoplanet is believed to be profoundly affected by activities of the host stars, although the related coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are still rarely detected in solar-like and late-type stars. We here report an…
In this Letter, we present Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph Fe XXI 1354.08 A forbidden line emission of two magnetic flux ropes (MFRs) that caused two fast coronal mass ejections with velocities of $\ge$1000 km s$^{-1}$ and strong…
The X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM), launched into low-Earth orbit in 2023, observes the reflection of solar flare X-rays in the Earth's atmosphere as a by-product of celestial observations. Using a $\sim$one-year data set…
We report the results of a search for 6.4 keV Fe fluorescent emission in Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) with measured accretion luminosities in the rho Oph cloud, using all existing chandra and XMM-Newton observations of the region. A total…
The geomagnetic "solar flare effect" (SFE) results from excess ionization in the Earth's ionosphere, famously first detected at the time of the Carrington flare in 1859. This indirect detection of a flare constituted one of the first cases…
We present spatially resolved Chandra HETGS observations of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068. X-ray imaging and high resolution spectroscopy are used to test the Seyfert unification theory. Fe K-alpha emission is concentrated in the nuclear…
Aims. X1908+075 is a supergiant X-ray binary (SgXB) composed of an evolved OB star and a neutron star (NS) in a 4.4-day orbit. We aim to characterize the stellar wind, constrain the system geometry, and investigate the origin and…
We analyze the \textit{Chandra} High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) observation of the Seyfert $2$ AGN IRAS\,18325-5926. We detect a $v=-360^{+41}_{-66}$~km~s$^{-1}$ blueshifted ionized absorber in the X-ray spectrum, with…
Motivated by the measurement of redshifted Fe H$\alpha$ lines during type I X-ray bursts on EXO 0748-676 (Cottam, Paerels & Mendez), we study the formation of atomic Fe lines above the photosphere of a bursting neutron star ($k_BT_{\rm eff}…
New fully relativistic calculations of radiative rates and electron impact excitation cross sections for Fe XVI are used to determine theoretical emission-line ratios applicable to the 251 - 361 A and 32 - 77 A portions of the…
We present here high resolution X-ray spectrum of the accreting binary X-ray pulsar GX 1+4 obtained with the High Energy Transmission Grating (HETG) instrument of the Chandra X-ray Observatory. This was supplemented by a simultaneous…
We present high-resolution Chandra HETGS X-ray spectra of the classical T Tauri star SU Aur. The quiescent X-ray emission is dominated by a 20-40 MK plasma, which contrasts strongly with the cool 3 MK plasma dominating the X-ray emission of…
We analyze the temporal variations of the sizes and emission intensities of thirtyone flaring kernels in various parts of the H{\alpha} line profile. We have found that the areas of all kernels decrease systematically when observed in…
We present Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer spectroscopy and photometry of the nearby F8 V star HD 35850 (HR 1817). The EUVE spectra reveal 28 emission lines from Fe IX and Fe XV to Fe XXIV. The Fe XXI 102, 129 A ratio yields an upper limit for…
Understanding the relationship among different emission components plays an essential role in the study of particle acceleration and energy conversion in solar flares. In flares where gradual and impulsive emission components can be readily…
We analyze X-ray spectra of heavily obscured (N_H > 10^{24} cm^{-2}) active galaxies obtained with Chandra, concentrating on the iron K alpha fluorescence line. We measure very large equivalent widths in most cases, up to 5 keV in the most…
In this paper we present new results of spectraphotometrical investigations of the flaring kernels sizes and their intensities measured simultaneously in various parts of the H-alpha line profile. Our investigations were based on the very…
In this paper we present a comprehensive survey of 41 X-ray binaries (10 HMXBs and 31 LMXBs) with Chandra, with specific emphasis on the Fe K region and the narrow Fe Kalpha line, at the highest resolution possible. We find that: a) The Fe…
Twisted magnetic fields should be ubiquitous in flare-producing active regions where the magnetic fields are strongly non-potential. It has been shown that reconnection in helical magnetic coronal loops results in plasma heating and…
