The nature of hard X-ray selected CV candidates
收藏资源简介:
About 20\\% of Galactic hard Xray galactic detected in the INTEGRAL and Swiftsurveys are accreting white dwarf binaries (CVs). The majority harbours magneticprimaries, which are disputed to be important contributors to the galacticpopulation of lowluminosity Xray sources. Optical followups allow to selectgood candidates, but a secure identification resides in the Xrays. XMMNewtonhas shown the unique potential to detect Xray spin pulses and caracterize thespectral properties with high S/N data. We here propose 9 new candidates withthe ultimate goal to obtain a fluxlimited sample down to 8E12cgs and allow atrue census of hard Xray CVs, in view of the accurate distances to be providedshortly by Gaia. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
