Understanding X-ray irradiation in low-mass X-ray binaries directly from their light-curves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The X-ray light curves of the recurring outbursts observed in low-mass X-ray binaries provide strong test beds for constraining (still) poorly understood disc-accretion processes.

X-rays from quiescent low-mass X-ray binary transients

open access: yes, 2000
International audienceI argue that it is very unlikely that X- rays from quiescent black-hole low-mass X-ray binary transients are emitted by coronae of companion stars.

Circulating microRNA signatures of cachexia and cancer in Canis familiaris as a comparative oncology model for human disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers of cachexia and sex‐specific cancer in senior dogs. In 25 client‐owned dogs, four circulating miRNAs (miR‐15a, miR‐15b, miR‐16, miR‐140) were downregulated in cachexia, with miR‐16 the strongest individual biomarker (AUC = 0.899).

Low-Mass X-ray Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes
A large fraction of X-ray sources in our Galaxy are low-mass X-ray binaries, containing a black hole or a neutron star accreting from a gravitationally bound low-mass (<∼1 M⊙) companion star.

Wide binary stars in the Galactic field : a statistical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis focuses on the statistical properties of wide binary (WB) star systems in the Galactic field. With projected separations larger than 200 AU and, consequently, having very low binding energies, WB are sensitive probes of the Galactic ...

Investigating the Effect of Inclination Angle and the Influence of Scan Parameters on the Appearance and Thermal and Mechanical Properties of Filigree Tension Rods of LPBF‐Manufactured NiTi Shape‐Memory Alloys

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article investigates the dependence of the properties on the manufacturing orientation in the form of the inclination angle to the build plate of LPBF‐fabricated NiTi rods with a diameter of 150–220 µm. Metallographic, chemical, thermal, and mechanical characterization show behavior under identical manufacturing conditions that ranges from ...

Investigating the Ultracompact X-Ray Binary Candidate SLX 1735-269 with NICER and NuSTAR

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present two simultaneous NICER and NuSTAR observations of the ultracompact X-ray binary (UCXB) candidate SLX 1735−269 while the source was in two different spectral states. Using various reflection modeling techniques, we find that xillverCO , a model

NEUTRON STAR MASSES AND RADII FROM QUIESCENT LOW-MASS X-RAY BINARIES [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
We perform a systematic analysis of neutron star radius constraints from five quiescent low-mass X-ray binaries and examine how they depend on measurements of their distances and amounts of intervening absorbing material, as well as their assumed atmospheric compositions.

TeV gamma-ray emission from accreting binary pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The high-mass X-ray binary SMC X-1 has been observed during the interval 1986-1989 at a threshold γ-ray energy of 0.4 TeV using the University of Durham Mark III air Cerenkov telescope at Narrabri.

A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1

open access: yes, 2013
Spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines.
