Stellar X-ray Binary Populations in Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2001
Chandra's high angular resolution can resolve emission from stellar X-ray binaries out of the diffuse X-ray emission from gaseous atmospheres within elliptical galaxies. Variations in the X-ray binary populations (per unit galaxian optical luminosity) are correlated with variations in the specific frequency of globular clusters in ellipticals.

Observation of soft X-rays from cosmic sources [PDF]

open access: yes
A binary X-ray source, an extended extragalactic X-ray source and several nearby stars were surveyed for X-ray emission. The energy spectrum and time structure of X-ray flux from the binary source, Her X-l, was investigated in the range from 0.15 to 6 ...

X-ray detection of the substellar twin 2MASS J11011926-7732383 AB

open access: yes, 2007
2MASS J11011926-7732383 AB (hereafter 2M1101AB), located in the Cha I star forming region, is a rare wide-separation brown dwarf binary. XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of 2M1101AB have allowed us to examine the influence of physical parameters (mass,

On the X-ray properties of V Sge and its relation to the supersoft X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1998
We investigate the ROSAT X-ray properties of V Sge, which has been proposed to be related to supersoft X-ray binaries. During optical bright states, V Sge is a faint hard X-ray source, while during optical faint states (V >=12 mag), V Sge is a `supersoft' X-ray source.

Chasing the Break: Tracing the Full Evolution of a Black Hole X-Ray Binary Jet with Multiwavelength Spectral Modeling

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Black hole (BH) X-ray binaries (XRBs) are ideal targets to study the connection between accretion inflow and jet outflow. Here we present quasi-simultaneous, multiwavelength observations of the Galactic BH system MAXI J1820+070, throughout its 2018–2019 ...

Discovery of the first accretion-powered millisecond X-ray pulsar [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1998
The precise origins of the millisecond radio pulsars, discovered in the early 1980s, remain uncertain until this day. They plausibly evolve from accreting low magnetic-field neutron stars in X-ray binary systems. If so, these stars should spin at millisecond rates.

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

X-Ray Views of Galactic Accreting Pulsars in High-Mass X-Ray Binaries [PDF]

open access: yes
Accreting X-ray pulsars, located in X-ray binaries, are neutron stars with magnetic fields as strong as $B\sim10^{12\text{--}13}$ G. This review offers a concise overview of the accretion and radiation processes of X-ray pulsars and summarizes their rich observational features, particularly focusing on complex and variable temporal phenomena, spectral ...

Linking burst-only X-ray binary sources to faint X-ray transients

open access: yes, 2009
Burst-only sources are X-ray sources showing up only during short bursts but with no persistent emission (at least with the monitoring instrument which led to their discovery).
