CCD observations of stars in the young cluster IC 348 were obtained from 2004 August to 2005 January with the 0.45 m ROTSE-IIId robotic reflecting telescope at the Turkish National Observatory site, Bakirlitepe, Turkey. The timing analysis of selected stars whose X-ray counterparts were detected by the Chandra X-Ray Observatory were studied. The time series of stars were searched for rotational periodicity by using different period-search methods. Thirty-five stars were found to be periodic with periods ranging from 0.74 to 32.3 days. Eighteen of the 35 periodic stars were new detections. Four of the new detections were classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs), and the others were weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTSs) or G-type (or unknown spectral class) stars. In this study, we confirmed the stability of rotation periods of TTSs. The periods obtained by Cohen et al. and us were different by 1%. We also confirmed the 3.24 hr pulsation period of H254, which is a delta Scuti-type star as noted by Ripepi et al., but the other periods detected by them were not found. We examined the correlation between X-ray luminosity and rotation period for our sample of TTSs. There is a decline in the rotation period with X-ray luminosity for late-type TTSs.

Upper limits to the SN1006 multi-TeV gamma-ray flux from HESS observations Aharonian, F; et. al. (EDP Sciences, 2005-07-01) Observations of the shell-type supernova remnant SN1006 have been carried out with the HESS system of Cherenkov telescopes during 2003 (18.2 h with two operating telescopes) and 2004 (6.3 h with all four telescopes). No evidence for TeV gamma-ray emission from any compact or extended region associated with the remnant is seen and resulting upper limits at the 99.9% confidence level are up to a factor 10 lower than previously-published fluxes from CANGAROO. For SN1006 at its current epoch of evolution we def...
Observations of the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source TeV J2032+4130 with the Whipple Observatory 10 m telescope Konopelko, A.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2007-04-01) We report on observations of the sky region around the unidentified TeV gamma-ray source (TeV J2032+ 4130) carried out with the Whipple Observatory 10 m atmospheric Cerenkov telescope for a total of 65.5 hr between 2003 and 2005. The standard two-dimensional analysis developed by the Whipple collaboration for a stand-alone telescope reveals an excess in the field of view at a pretrial significance level of 6.1 sigma. The measured position of this excess is alpha = 20(h)32(m)27(s), delta = 41 degrees 39'17" ...
A search for supernova remnants in the nearby spiral galaxy M74 (NGC 628) SONBAŞ, EDA; AKYÜZ, AYSUN; Balman, Şölen; Ozel, M. E. (EDP Sciences, 2010-07-01) An optical search was carried out for supernova remnants (SNRs) in the Sc type nearby spiral galaxy M 74, using ground-based observations at the TUBITAK National Observatory (TUG, Antalya/Turkey) and the Special Astrophysics Observatory (SAO, Russia). Observations were supplemented by the spectral analysis of archived X-ray data from XMM-Newton and Chandra. The survey of M74 covered similar to 9 arcmin(2) with [S II], H alpha, and their continuum filters. Interference filter images of M 74 were obtained the...
The first hours of the optical afterglow from the cosmic gamma-ray burst 030329 Burenin, RA; Sunyaev, RA; Pavlinsky, MN; Denisenko, DV; Terekhov, OV; Tkachenko, AY; Aslan, Z; Khamitov, I; Uluch, K; Alpar, MA; Kiziloglu, U; Baykal, Altan; Bikmaev, IF; Sakhibullin, NR; Suleymanov, VF (Pleiades Publishing Ltd, 2003-09-01) We describe the first results Of Our observations of the exceptionally bright optical afterglow from the cosmic gamma-ray burst (GRB) of March 29, 2003 (030329), with the 1.5-m Russian-Turkish telescope (RTT150) installed at the TUBITAK National Observatory (Turkey) at Mount Bakyrlytepe. RTT150 was one of the first medium-class telescopes pointed at the afterglow. The observations began as early as about six hours after the GRB. During the first five hours of our observations, the BVRI flux fell off exactly...
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...
