A High Spatial Resolution X-Ray and Hα Study of Hot Gas in the Halos of Star-forming Disk Galaxies. II. Quantifying Supernova Feedback (2003, background): “X-ray studies of our own Galaxy’s halo and disk/halo interface (e.g., Kuntz & Snowden 2000) provide information complementary to the study of other galaxies but are difficult to perform and interpret because of our location within the disk.”
DO HOT HALOS AROUND GALAXIES CONTAIN THE MISSING BARYONS? (2010, methodology): “A flattened profile containing all the missing baryons also violates the EM measurement of Kuntz & Snowden (2000).”
A Catalog of Galaxy Clusters Observed by XMM-Newton (2007, background): “…the hotter halo emission (and/or emission from the local group), and 4) an E−1.46 power law representing the unresolved cosmological emission (e.g., Kuntz & Snowden 2000) can be fit to the RASS and MOS data, with additional components representing the cluster, SP, and FX components fit…”
Scaling Properties of a Complete X-ray Selected Galaxy Group Sample (2014, methodology): “However, when freezing the background temperatures to the best-fit values obtained by Kuntz & Snowden (2000), the normalizations of the background components agree well with the results we obtained by fitting the XMM-Newton data together with the ROSAT data.”
X-ray spectroscopy of the Virgo Cluster out to the virial radius (2011, background): “…in the CXFB model – an absorbed power-law from the unresolved point sources (De Luca & Molendi 2004), an ∼0.2 keV emission from the Galactic halo (Kuntz & Snowden 2000) and the Local Hot Bubble emission mod- c© 0000 RAS, MNRAS 000, 000–000 [ ] eled by 0.08 keV thermal plasma (LHB2, Sidher et…”
CONSTRAINING THE MILKY WAY'S HOT GAS HALO WITH O vii AND O viii EMISSION LINES (2014, methodology): “A combination of results from analyses comparing the RASS 1/4 keV and 3/4 keV bands (Snowden et al. 1997; Kuntz & Snowden 2000) and shadowing experiments toward nearby molecular clouds (Galeazzi et al. 2007; Smith et al. 2007) imply that multiple plasma components comprise the 0.5 - 2.0 keV…”
Neutral Atomic Phases of the Interstellar Medium in the Galaxy (2003, methodology): “Using the observed ratios in the ROSAT R1, R2, R3, and R4 bands, Kuntz & Snowden (2000) find logTb ¼ 6:11 for the bubble and logTh1 ¼ 6:06, logTh2 ¼ 6:46 for the two halo temperatures as compared with logTb ¼ 6:16 and logTh ¼ 6:33 from Garmire et al. (1992).”
Energy spectra of the soft X-ray diffuse emission in fourteen fields observed with Suzaku (2009, background): “Kuntz & Snowden (2000) called this component the “transabsorption” emission (TAE) and separated it in the ROSAT all sky map utilizing the directional dependence of the absorption column density.”
The Search for the Missing Baryons at Low Redshift (2007, methodology): “By using the anticorrelation betweenm the RASS and the Galactic HI survey, Kuntz & Snowden (2000) were able to separate local emission from emission beyond the HI layer.”
XMM-Newton Observation of Solar Wind Charge Exchange Emission (2004, background): “…there are no significantly bright point sources or extended objects in the field), and can be modeled using the four standard components listed in Kuntz & Snowden (2000): a cooler unabsorbed thermal component with T ∼ 0.1 keV representing emission from the Local Hot Bubble (e.g., Snowden et al.…”
X-ray background measurements with XMM-Newton EPIC (2002, background): “Kuntz & Snowden (2000) describe a re-analysis of ROSAT survey data, utilizing different energy-band intensity ratios.”
