Kopernika","doi":"10.1051/0004-6361:200810897","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361:200810897","url":null,"abstract":"Context. The PICsIT detector onboard the INTEGRAL satellite was designed to provide information about emission in the soft γ-ray band for many bright sources. Due to strong and variable instrumental background, only 4 objects have been detected so far using standard software. Aims. The moderate sensitivity of PICsIT can be compensated for in the case of many objects by adopting a long exposure time, thanks to INTEGRAL’s large field of view and an observing strategy focused on the Galactic plane. With angular resolution far higher than that of all other instruments operating in a similar energy band, PICsIT is suitable for fields too crowded or too significantly affected by Galactic diffuse emission. Therefore, it is desirable to improve the spectral extraction software to both obtain more reliable results and enlarge the number of objects that can be studied. Methods. The new PICsIT spectral extraction method is based on three elements: careful modelling of the background, an energydependent pixel-illumination function, and the computation of the probability density of the source count rate. Background maps of the detector plane are prepared for short periods and relatively narrow energy bands to insure that the background dependence on time and energy is modelled well. The most important element of the new spectral extraction method is the proper treatment of the Poisson-distributed data, developed within a Bayesian framework. Results. The new method was tested extensively on both a large true data set and simulated data. Results assumed in simulations were reproduced perfectly, without any bias and with high precision. Count rates measured for Crab were far more stable than those obtained with the standard software. For weaker sources, the new method produced spectra of far higher quality and allows us to detect at least 8 additional objects. Comparison with other INTEGRAL instruments demonstrated that PICsIT is well calibrated and provides valuable information about the continuum emission in the 250 keV – 1 MeV band, detectable currently only by INTEGRAL.","PeriodicalId":8453,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Astrophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72678141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data can be used to address questions such as, e.g., the star‐formation histories, the stellar initial mass function, the dust properties, and the energetics and chemistry of the interstellar medium. We can tackle these issues from a different angle by comparing the spectral properties of high‐redshift galaxies to those of their counterparts in the local universe. I give a review of recent developments related to observations and empirical modeling of the ultraviolet spectra of local galaxies with recent star formation. The emphasis is on the youngest stellar populations with ages less than 100 Myr. Current uncertainties will be discussed, and areas where progress is needed in the future are highlighted.","PeriodicalId":8453,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Astrophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82122504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We review the formation of the Galilean satellites in the context of current constraints and understanding of giant planet formation, focusing on recent models of satellite growth within a circumjovian accretion disk produced during the final stages of gas inflow to Jupiter. In such a disk, the Galilean satellites would have accreted slowly, in more than 10^5 yr, and in a low pressure, low gas density environment. Gravitational interactions between the satellites and the gas disk lead to inward orbital migration and loss of satellites to Jupiter. Such effects tend to select for a maximum satellite mass and a common total satellite system mass compared to the planet's mass. One implication is that multiple satellite systems may have formed and been lost during the final stages of Jupiter's growth, with the Galilean satellites being the last generation that survived as gas inflow to Jupiter ended. We conclude by discussing open issues and implications for Europa's conditions of formation.","PeriodicalId":8453,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Astrophysics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73440289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
