RE 0751+14 is a member of the class of Soft Intermediate Polars. Unlike classical Intermediate Polars, they are characterized by the presence of a soft component in their X-ray spectra, in addition to the hard component. typical of these systems. The broad-band coverage of the Narrow-Field instruments on board BeppoSAX is ideal for the study of such objects. Here we report the preliminary results of the analysis of a BeppoSAX pointing to RE 0751+14. Both components are clearly detected, and their temperature determined (similar to 50 eV and similar to 40 keV), enabling the possibility of studying them simultaneously.

Abstract
RE 0751+14 is a member of the class of Soft Intermediate Polars. Unlike classical Intermediate Polars, they are characterized by the presence of a soft component in their X-ray spectra, in addition to the hard component. typical of these systems. The broad-band coverage of the Narrow-Field instruments on board BeppoSAX is ideal for the study of such objects. Here we report the preliminary results of the analysis of a BeppoSAX pointing to RE 0751+14. Both components are clearly detected, and their temperature determined (similar to 50 eV and similar to 40 keV), enabling the possibility of studying them simultaneously.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
