| Research Abstract |
We have studied origin of the Galactic Ridge X-ray Emission(GRXE) using X-ray satellites and ground-based infrared observatories. We have found that dimmer point X-ray sources have relatively prominent iron K-line emission compared to bright sources. We have carried out infrared spectroscopy of those dim X-ray sources, and found that these sources show molecular absorption lines, which are characteristics of low-temperature stars. We propose these sources are "pre-CVs", the binary stars composed of white dwarfs and late-type stars, in the process of evolution to the cataclysmic variables(CVs).
