X-ray observations of central stars of planetary nebulae and their winds

Abstract: Abstract. The photospheric emission from the hottest central stars of planetary nebulae (CSPNe) is capable to extend into the X-ray domain, with emission peaking at 0.1-0.2 keV and vanishing above 0.4 keV. Unexpected, intriguing hard X-ray emission with energies greater than 0.5 keV has been reported for several CSPNe and for a number of white dwarfs (WDs). Different mechanisms may be responsible for the hard X-ray emission from CSPNe and WDs: coronal emission from a late-type companion, shocks in fast winds a… Show more

“…The orbital parameters of the newly discovered binary (Section 3) provide some additional insights into the mechanisms behind the X-ray emission. The X-ray spectrum consists of two apparent components: a mostly soft component peaking just after 1 keV and a hard X-ray tail of up to 5 keV (Guerrero 2012). Such a configuration most closely resembles that seen in the X-ray spectra of symbiotic stars (Muerset, Wolff, & Jordan 1997;Luna et al 2013).…”

“…Previous spectral fitting of the X-ray spectrum of the central star of NGC 2392 involved fitting optically thin thermal plasmas (Guerrero 2012;Montez et al 2015). The orbital parameters of the newly discovered binary (Section 3) provide some additional insights into the mechanisms behind the X-ray emission.…”
