Wow. I didn't expect to get a result that quick! *grins*
[EDIT]Well, I feel an idiot now, but hey, ionising radiation isn't *just* used in reactors and particle accelerators, y'know... since one of its byproducts is positive ions it could theoretically be propulsion based, which would be kinda cool... and yes, I know, I sound like a newbie... I am.[/EDIT]

I hate to make my first post a contrary comment, but last I checked, iron was only in trace quantities in the object, as was chromium. This would generally rule out gauss (IE - EM launched) projectiles, as would the materials composition, which, as Chris Ellis has pointed out to me, has elements of an electronics-capable substrate. It would be interesting to have a diagram of the layers of this object, because while it has obviously melted, the core sounds relatively intact. One thing I did suggest, however, is that we are not taking into account the possibility of 'holistic design', which, while a relatively new concept to us in engineering (relatively), could be very well established in an older civilisation.
In the end, the only things we can be certain are a) The object. if it is machinery, is most likely now defective, if not from re-entry, then from examination procedures... b) It sporadically radiates, and c) these radiations are known to affect electronic devices in odd ways (also consistent with a damaged piece of high powered electrical machinery.
It should be noted from my (admittedly limited) research in this area that the A360 alloys (apparently the closest match we have) have some very interesting properties, and could (theoretically, at least), be used for electronic devices of great complexity (due to the interesting micro/nano-structuring of the material)
Hope that helps, peeps.
[EDIT] Dr. Lamb, I hope you're reading this. Have you considered the possibility that this is a damaged, yet fairly advanced RTG? It's one of the possibilities that fits...[/EDIT]
