Because XMM-Newton contains no on-board data storage, science data is transmitted to these ground stations in real time. [20] Data is then forwarded to the European Space Astronomy Centre 's Science Operations Centre in Villafranca del Castillo, Spain, where pipeline processing has been performed since March 2012.
The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is a serendipitous X-ray galaxy cluster survey being conducted using archival data taken by ESA’s XMM-Newton satellite. Galaxy clusters trace the large scale structure of the universe, and their number density evolution with redshift provides a way to measure cosmological parameters, independent of cosmic microwave background experiments or supernovae cosmology ...
A team analysing XMM-Newton data did conclude that the x-ray emission does not originate from the accretion shock and the team proposed that the emission is coming from the shock at the base of the jet and the corona of the star. [19] The jet was also directly imaged with VLT/MUSE in H-alpha and sulfur emission lines. [20]
2XMM J083026+524133 (2XMM J0830) is a very large galaxy cluster that lies 7.7 billion light-years away. It was discovered by chance by ESA's XMM Newton and the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) in Arizona in 2008 while it was looking at the quasar APM 08279+5255.
The same source was earlier observed in soft X-rays by XMM-Newton, and was given the catalogue name 3XMM J004232.1+411314. By analysing archival data elaborated by the EXTraS project, this source showed dips (a short and linear decrease in the source luminosity, which returns subsequently at the previous luminosity level) in some observations ...
XMMXCS 2215-1738 is a galaxy cluster that lies 10 billion light-years away and has a redshift value of z=1.45. It was discovered by the XMM Cluster Survey in 2006. [1]Discovered in 2006, XMMXCS 2215-1738 is one of the most distant galaxy clusters known.
In 2000, XMM Newton discovered that the galaxy contains several broad absorption lines from various ionized elements like nitrogen, oxygen and iron L-shell ions. Further evidence shows, IRAS 13349+2438 also has an unresolved transitional array of an inner-shell absorption, possibly misidentified to be an OVII edge through observations made by ...
GRB 221009A was subsequently observed by the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), [14] the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI), the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), [30] [31] [8] the International Gamma-ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL), the XMM-Newton space telescope, [32] the Large High Altitude Air Shower ...
