  • Extension of Upper Limit Servers and Spectral Analysis of the X-Ray Binary GRO J1744−28
    Extension of Upper Limit Servers and spectral analysis of the X-ray binary GRO J1744−28 Master's Thesis in Physics Presented by Ole K¨onig Wednesday 31st July, 2019 Dr. Karl Remeis-Sternwarte & ECAP Friedrich-Alexander-Universit¨atErlangen-N¨urnberg Supervisor: Prof. Dr. J¨ornWilms Abstract This thesis is about applications in the field of X-ray astronomy. It is divided into a software development and data analysis part. The Upper Limit Servers allow the user to generate long-term lightcurves of X-ray sources. They combine historical data and calculate upper limits in real-time. A web-based front- end provides facile querying, plotting and downloading of the data. They utilize data from 12 satellites including current observatories such as XMM-Newton, back to ROSAT, Einstein, Ariel V and Uhuru. This enables the user to query 50 years of X-ray data and, for instance, study outburst behavior of transient sources. Part I of this thesis describes the software layout, database format, as well as nine X-ray missions, which I implemented. In particular, the implementation of catalog calls, image footprints, point spread functions, and vignetting is described. The count rate is converted to a flux by approximating the spectral shape with an absorbed power-law or black body. In order to outline possible applications of this software, I interpret four lightcurves. In the second part, the spectral analysis of the low-mass X-ray binary GRO J1744−28 is presented. The ∼29 ks data was taken with the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) in 2017 February, during the source's fourth reactivation phase after three years of quiescence.
