X‐Ray Emission from Colliding Wind Shocks in the Wolf‐Rayet Binary WR 140

We analyze four ASCA X-ray observations of the Wolf-Rayet binary system WR 140 obtained between 1993 and 1997 by making use of hydrodynamic colliding wind (CW) shock models. The analysis shows that the CW shock models are able to accurately reproduce the X-ray spectra at different orbital phases usi... View More
