Journal Article
Fabbiano, G., Brassington, N. J., Lentati, L., Angelini, L., Davies, R. L., Gallagher, J., Kalogera, V., Kim, D. W., King, A. R., Kundu, A., Pellegrini, S., Richings, A. J., Trinchieri, G., Zezas, A., & Zepf, S. (2010). Field and globular cluster low-mass X-ray binaries in NGC 4278. The Astrophysical journal, 725(2), 1824-1847. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637X/725/2/1824

We report a detailed spectral analysis of the population of low-massX-ray binaries (LMXBs) detected in the elliptical galaxy NGC 4278 with Chandra. Seven luminous sources were studied individually, four in globular clusters (GCs) and three in the ste... Read More about Field and globular cluster low-mass X-ray binaries in NGC 4278.

The hot interstellar medium of the interacting galaxy NGC 4490 (2010)
Journal Article
Richings, A. J., Fabbiano, G., Wang, J., & Roberts, T. P. (2010). The hot interstellar medium of the interacting galaxy NGC 4490. The Astrophysical journal, 723(2), 1375-1392. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637X/723/2/1375

We present an analysis of the hot interstellar medium (ISM) in the spiral galaxy NGC 4490, which is interacting with the irregular galaxy NGC 4485, using ∼100 ks of Chandra ACIS-S observations. The high angular resolution of Chandra enables us to rem... Read More about The hot interstellar medium of the interacting galaxy NGC 4490.
