Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer observations of neutron stars.

KORPELA E.J. and BOWYER S.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present the results of searches for EUV emission from neutron stars conducted with the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer Deep Survey and scanner telescopes. To date, 21 fields containing known neutron stars have been observed in the Lexan/boron (40-190 Å) band. Of these, 11 fields were simultaneously observed in the aluminum/carbon (160-385 Å) band. Five neutron stars that have been detected in the EUV have been reported previously; no new detections have been made in the studies reported here. For those sources not detected, we have used the observations to obtain limits on the spectral flux from the neutron stars in these bands. We provide means to convert these fluxes into intrinsic source fluxes for blackbody and power-law spectra for varying levels of absorption by the interstellar medium.
