Description
We report on a Chandra observation of the transient low-mass X-ray binary and type-I X-ray burst source 2S 1711-339 (Carpenter et al. 1977,MNRAS,179,270; Wilson et al. 2003,ApJ,596,1220). The 2S 1711-339 region was observed with the Chandra ACIS-S3 CCD array for 25 ks on 2003 February 07. A total of 64 counts were detected from a source at R.A. = 17h:14m:19s.73, decl. = - -34:02:46.9 (J2000), a position consistent with the precise position of 2S 1711-339 obtained earlier during outburst.

    The abundance of galaxy clusters with mass and redshift is a wellknown cosmological probe. The cluster mass is a key parameter for studies that aim to constrain cosmological parameters using galaxy clusters, making it critical to understand and properly account for the errors in its estimates. Subsequently, it becomes important to correctly

    Generating galaxy clusters mass density maps from mock multiview images via deep learning
    Galaxy clusters are composed of dark matter, gas and stars. Their dark matter component, which amounts to around 80% of the total mass, cannot be directly observed but traced by the distribution of diffused gas and galaxy members. In this work, we aim to infer the cluster's projected total mass distribution from mock observational data, i.e. stars
