On the Origin of Spectral Features Observed during Thermonuclear X-Ray Bursts and in the Aftermath Emission of a Long Burst from 4U 1820–30

The Astrophysical Journal
We study 15 thermonuclear X-ray bursts from 4U 1820–30 observed with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). We find evidence of a narrow emission line at 1.0 keV and three absorption lines at 1.7, 3.0, and 3.75 keV, primarily around the ...

Evidence for a constant IMF in early-type galaxies based on their X-ray binary populations [PDF]

, 2014
A number of recent studies have proposed that the stellar initial mass function (IMF) of early type galaxies varies systematically as a function of galaxy mass, with higher mass galaxies having bottom heavy IMFs.

Sonic-Point Model of Kilohertz Quasi-periodic Brightness Oscillations in Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries [PDF]

, 1996
Quasi-periodic brightness oscillations (QPOs) with frequencies ranging from ~300 to ~1200 Hz have been discovered in the X-ray emission from 14 neutron stars in low-mass binary systems and from another neutron star in the direction of the Galactic center.

Covalent Organic Frameworks for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction: Metal Integration Principles, Strategies and Functions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with metals have been recognized as versatile platforms for photocatalytic CO2 reduction (CO2PRR). Herein, an overview of metal integration strategies for COFs is systematically summarized. Regulatory mechanisms and structure–activity relationships between metal integration and COF‐based CO2PRR are emphasized.

Detection of Oscillations in a Type I X-Ray Burst of 4U 0614+091 with SVOM/ECLAIRs

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
On 2025 January 10, a thermonuclear (Type I) X-ray burst from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) 4U 0614+091 was detected with the ECLAIRs instrument on board the Space-based multiband astronomical Variable Object Monitor mission.

Insight-HXMT Detections of Hard X-Ray Tails in Scorpius X-1

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Using the observations of the high-energy detector of the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT) for Scorpius X-1 from 2017 to 2020, we search for hard X-ray tails in the X-ray spectra in ∼30–200 keV. The hard X-ray tails are found throughout the

X-ray emission from hot subdwarfs with compact companions

, 2012
We review the X-ray observations of hot subdwarf stars. While no X-ray emission has been detected yet from binaries containing B-type subdwarfs, interesting results have been obtained in the case of the two luminous O-type subdwarfs HD 49798 and BD +37 ...

Nature of the Extreme Ultraluminous X-ray Sources [PDF]

, 2015
In this proof-of-concept study we demonstrate that in a binary system mass can be transferred toward an accreting compact object at extremely high rate. If the transferred mass is efficiently converted to X-ray luminosity (with disregard of the classical

Excitation of Neutron Star f-mode in Low Mass X-ray Binaries [PDF]

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2006
Neutron Stars (NSs) present a host of pulsation modes. Only a few of them, however, is of relevance from the gravitational wave (GW) point of view. Among the various possible modes the pulsation energy is mostly stored in the f-mode in which the fluid parameters undergo the largest changes.
