The analyses of X-ray emission from classical novae during the outburst stage have shown that the soft X-ray emission below 1 keV, which is thought to originate from the photosphere of the white dwarf, is inconsistent with the simple blackbody model of emission. Thus, ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC) archival data of the classical Nova Mus 1983 (GQ Mus) have been re-analysed in order to understand the spectral development in the X-ray wavelengths during the outburst stage. The X-ray spectra are fitted with the hot white dwarf (WD) atmosphere emission models developed for the remnants of classical novae near the Eddington luminosity. The post-outburst X-ray spectra of the remnant white dwarf are examined in the context of evolution on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram using C-O enhanced atmosphere models. The data obtained in 1991 August (during the ROSAT All Sky Survey) indicate that the effective temperature is kT(e) < 54 eV (< 6.2 x 10(5) K). The 1992 February data show that the white dwarf had reached an effective temperature in the range 38.3-43.3 eV (4.4-5.1 x 10(5) K) with an unabsorbed X-ray flux (i.e. similar to bolometric flux) between 2.5 x 10(-9) and 2.3 x 10(-10) erg s(-1) cm(-2). We show that the H burning at the surface of the WD had most likely ceased at the time of the X-ray observations. Only the 1991 August data show evidence for ongoing, H burning.

THE NOISE IN THE 35-D CYCLE OF HER X-1
Baykal, Altan; DEETER, JE; SCOTT, DM (1993-11-15)
We calculate the power density spectrum of fluctuations in the X-ray turn-on times of Her X-1, including new data which extend the X-ray and optical flux observations to a span of over 20 yr with 221 distinct 35-d high-low flux cycles. If we assume that turn-on times define the period of the 35-d clock, this statistical interpretation of turn-on behaviour is consistent with a white-noise process in the first derivative of the 35-d phase fluctuations (or a random walk in clock phase). We discuss the implicat...
Application of the hot white dwarf atmosphere models to the X-ray data of classical novae
Balman, Şölen (1998-09-10)
The analyses of X-ray emission from classical novae after outburst have shown that the soft X-ray emission below 1 keV, which is thought to originate from the photosphere of the white dwarf, is inconsistent with the simple black body model of emission. Thus, the ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC) data (0.1-2.4 keV) of the classical novae V1974 Cygni 1992 and some others have been reanalyzed in order to understand the spectral development of novae in the X-ray wavelengths during the outburs...
The broad-band noise characteristics of selected cataclysmic variables (CVS), anomalous x-ray pulsars (AXPS) and soft gamma repeaters (SGRS)
Külebi, Baybars; Balman, Şölen; Department of Physics (2006)
In this work present the broad-band noise structure in the 2-60 keV data of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) with Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars (AXPs) and Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs). We analyzed Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) PCA data and derived time series from 27 CVs, 4 AXPs and 1 SGR using the RXTE archive. In general, CVs of different types all show broad band noise which can be fitted with power laws, using exponentional cut-offs, and Lorentzians in a similar way to power spectral (noise) characteristics of...
The torque and X-ray flux changes of OAO 1657-415
Baykal, Altan (1997-03-01)
Combining previously published pulse frequencies and BATSE measurements, we estimate the noise strengths (or power density estimates) of angular accelerations by using the root mean square residuals of angular velocity time series of OAO 1657-415 and present the power spectra. The statistical interpretation of the angular velocity fluctuations is consistent with a random walk model. In order to investigate the short term angular velocity fluctuations in detail, a structure function analysis is applied for a...
The broad-band noise characteristics of selected AXPs and SGRs: Probing the magnetar coronae
Kulebi, Baybars; Balman, Şölen (2007-08-17)
We present the broad-band noise structure of Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars (AXPs) and Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs) in the 2-60 keV energy band which are thought to be powered by either magnetic decay(Thompson & Duncan 1995) or accretion (Alpar 2001). We have used Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (R-XTE) PCA archival light curves and derived time series for 4 AXPs and 1 SGR. We detect that AXP and SGR sources show band limited noise at low frequencies in the range 0.005-0.05 Hz. We find that this noise level can be asso...
