摘要: We report the results from a detailed analysis of an archival XMM-Newton observation of the X-ray source XGPS-I J183251-100106, which has been suggested as a promising magnetic cataclysmic variable (CV) candidate based on its optical properties. A single periodic signal of ~1.5 hr is detected from all EPIC instruments on board XMM-Newton. The phase-averaged X-ray spectrum can be well modeled with a thermal bremsstrahlung temperature of kT ~ 50 keV. Both the X-ray spectral and temporal behavior of this system suggest that it is an eclipsing CV of the AM Herculis (or polar) type. 出版者: United States 出版日期: 2012-11-10 出處: The Astrophysical journal, 2012-11, Vol.759 (2), p.109-7 資源來源: Institute of Physics Journals 識別號: ISSN: 0004-637X 識別號: ISSN: 1538-4357 識別號: EISSN: 1538-4357 識別號: DOI: 10.1088/0004-637X/759/2/109
