4 Dec 2002 | Subject: | astro-ph | Abstract: | We have developed a timing analysis method to determine the distances of variable galactic X-ray sources based on the method advanced by Trümper and Schönfelder in 1973. The light-curve of the halo produced by the scattering of X-rays off the interstellar dust is delayed and smeared by the dust grains. This method utilizes the differences between the power density spectra of the point source and the halo. We present the details of this method and our first applications of this method to the Chandra data of X-ray binary Cyg X-3. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0212090 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
