14 May 1996 | Abstract: | The contribution of weakly--magnetized ($Bsim 10^9$ G) neutron stars accreting the interstellar medium to the diffuse X--ray emission observed in the Galactic Center is investigated. It is shown that, under rather conservative assumptions about the neutron stars and gas distributions, the accretion luminosity can account for a sizable fraction, possibly most, of the detected X--ray flux in the 2.5--7 keV band. In particular, model results are compared with {it Granat/} data and show a general agreement in both the flux energy and radial distributions. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9605071 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
