X-Ray Observations of the Compact Central Object in Supernova Remnant G347.3-0.5

X-Ray Observations of the Compact Central Object in Supernova Remnant G347.3-0.5

We present Chandra, XMM-Newton, and Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer observations of 1WGA J1713.4-3949, a compact source at the center of the Galactic supernova remnant (SNR) G347.3-0.5. The X-ray spectrum of the source is well fitted by the sum of a blackbody component with a temperature of ~0.4 keV plus a …
