ASCA Galactic Plane Survey faint X-ray sources

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The X-ray emission from the central region of the Galactic plane, |l|<~45{deg} and |b|<~0.4{deg}, was studied in the 0.710keV energy band with a spatial resolution of ~3' with the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics (ASCA) observatory.

Description

We developed a new analysis method for the ASCA data to resolve discrete sources from the extended Galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE). We successfully resolved 163 discrete sources with an X-ray flux down to 10^-12.5^ergs/cm^2^/s and determined the intensity variations of the GRXE as a function of the Galactic longitude with a spatial resolution of about 1{deg}.
