3C 400.2 belongs to the mixed-morphology supernova remnant class, showing center-filled X-ray and shell-like radio morphology. We present a study of 3C 400.2 with archival Suzaku and Fermi-LAT observations. We find recombining plasma (RP) in the Suzaku spectra of north-east and south-east regions. The spectra of these regions are well described by two-component thermal plasma models: the hard component is in RP, while the soft component is in collisional ionization equilibrium (CIE) conditions. The RP has enhanced abundances, indicating that the X-ray emission has an ejecta origin, while the CIE has solar abundances associated with the interstellar material. The X-ray spectra of north-west and south-west regions are best fitted by a two-component thermal plasma model: an ionizing and a CIE plasma. We have detected GeV gamma-ray emission from 3C 400.2 at the level of similar to 5 sigma, assuming a point-like source model with a power-law (PL) type spectrum. We have also detected a new GeV source at the level of similar to 13 sigma, assuming a Gaussian extension model with a PL-type spectrum in the neighborhood of the supernova remnant. We report the analysis results of 3C 400.2 and the new extended gammaray source, and discuss the nature of gamma-ray emission of 3C 400.2 in the context of existing NANTEN CO data, Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory H I data, and the Suzaku X-ray analysis results.

Orbital and spin phase-resolved spectroscopy of the intermediate polar EX Hya using XMM-Newton data
Pekon, Y.; Balman, Şölen (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-02-01)
We present the orbital phase-resolved spectra of an intermediate polar, EX Hya, together with the spin phase-resolved spectra during two different epochs using the X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton), European Photon Imaging Camera (pn instrument). We find that the source at the two epochs has the same X-ray luminosity of similar to 6.5 x 1031 erg s-1. We detect spectral variations between the 2000 and 2003 observations of the source. We fitted the spectrum using a neutral hydrogen absorption model with...
The first resolved and detected classical nova shell in X-rays: The shell of Nova Persei 1901
Balman, Şölen; Ogelman, HB (IOP Publishing, 1999-06-20)
We present the ROSAT High-Resolution Imager data of the first resolved and detected classical nova shell in the X-ray wavelengths: the shell of Nova Persei 1901. We find that the X-ray nebula is composed of knots/clumps and has an elliptical shape with a total count rate of about 0.01 +/- 0.001 counts s(-1). We estimate that the spectrum is of thermal origin with a luminosity of similar to 8.0 x 10(31) ergs s(-1) and an X-ray temperature of similar to 2.0 x 10(6) K in the 0.1-2.4 keV energy range. The knots...
The XMM-Newton detection of extended emission from the nova remnant of T Pyxidis
Balman, Şölen (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2010-05-01)
We report the detection of an extended X-ray nebulosity with an elongation from north-east to south-west in excess of 15 arcsec in a radial profile and imaging of the recurrent nova T Pyx using the archival data obtained with the X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton), European Photon Imaging Camera (pn instrument). The signal-to-noise ratio in the extended emission (above the point source and the background) is 5.2 over the 0.3-9.0 keV energy range and 4.9 over the 0.3-1.5 keV energy range. We calculate a...
X-RAY SPECTRAL AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF A ULX IN NGC 4258 (M106)
Avdan, H.; Avdan, S.; AKYÜZ, AYSUN; Balman, Şölen; AKSAKER, NAZIM; AKKAYA ORALHAN, Inci (American Astronomical Society, 2016-09-10)
We study the X-ray and optical properties of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) X-6 in the nearby galaxy NGC 4258 (M106) based on the archival XMM-Newton, Chandra, Swift, and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations. The source has a peak luminosity of L-X similar to 2 x 10(39) erg s(-1) in the XMM-Newton observation of 2004 June. Consideration of the hardness ratios and the spectral model parameters shows that the source seems to exhibit possible spectral variations throughout the X-ray observations. In...
The X-ray spectral evolution of classical Nova V1974 Cygni 1992: A reanalysis of the ROSAT data
Balman, Şölen; Krautter, J; Ogelman, H (IOP Publishing, 1998-05-20)
We present a spectral analysis of the archival X-ray data of classical Nova V1974 Cygni 1992 (Nova Cygni 1992) obtained by the ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC). The X-ray spectrum is fitted with a two-component model. The first component is a white dwarf atmosphere emission model developed for the remnants of classical novae near the Eddington luminosity. The model is used to fit the soft X-ray data in the similar to 0.1-1.0 keV range, where the bulk of emission is below 0.7 keV. The sec...
