AbstractAn X-ray flare from the star π UMA has been observed by EXOSAT on January 31, 1984. The data were collected using the-Low Energy Experiment and the Medium Energy Experiment, sensitive to the spectral bands 0.04 - 2 Kev and 1-20 Kev (Landini et al. 1986).The temperature and emission measure variations during the flare are deduced under the isothermal assumption. Using a parametrized profile of the differential emission measure, wich is controlled by the conductive flux via the temperature gradient, the comparison with the observed data gives some insight on a “mean loop” model and its power supply.

AbstractThe 805 sec pulsing X-ray source H2252−035 has been observed for 7 h on September 14/15 and on September 17, 1983 in X-rays with the low energy telescope and the medium energy detectors of EXOSAT. While below 2 keV the semiamplitude of the 805 s pulses is ~ 100% in the 2.3–7.9 keV band it is only ~ 40%. X-ray dips that are more pronounced in low energies occur simultaneously with the orbital minimum of the optical light curve. The medium energy spectra during dips with respect to the non dip spectrum can be explained by just enhanced cold gas absorption of an additional absorbing column of 2 1022 cm−2. Model spectra for the 805 s minimum have to include a strong iron emission line at 6.55 keV with an equivalent width of 3 keV in addition to a reduced continuum intensity (radiating area) and enhanced low energy absorption.

The bright BL Lac object PKS 2155-304 (mv=13; z=0.117) was observed with EXOSAT at five epochs (1983 Oct. 31, Nov. 30, 1984 Nov. 6, 7 and 11), for a total of about 30 hours of exposure time. Here we present data and results obtained with the Low Energy (LE) telescopes, in the band 0.05–2. keV, and with the Medium Energy (ME) argon proportional counters in the range 1.–6. keV.

AbstractIn this review we present a short introduction to the X-ray Telescope on Hinode. We discuss its capabilities and new features and compare it with Yohkoh SXT. We also discuss some of the first results that include observations of X-ray jets in coronal holes, shear change in flares, sigmoid eruptions and evolution, application of filter ratios and differential emission measure analysis, structure of active regions, fine structure of X-ray bright points, and modeling non-potential fields around filaments. Finally, we describe how XRT works with other ground and space-based instrumentation, in particular with TRACE, EIS, SOT, and SOLIS.
