Observations of X-ray Burst Sources [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987 Recent observational results on X-ray bursts and burst sources are reviewed. Two distinct types of bursts, Type I and Type II bursts, are discussed in relation to the mass and radius of neutron stars and to the problems of unusual mass accretion in some burst sources.

A Model for Bursting X-Ray Sources [PDF]
Highlights of Astronomy, 1977 A model given by Henriksen and Chia (1972) for short duty cycle X-ray flare sources has been extended by Henriksen (1976), and applied to the recently discovered X-ray bursters. We use their notation here unless otherwise indicated. The model envisages a rapidly rotating magnetic white dwarf or neutron star located in a dense stream or cloud of gas ...

Solar Physics, 1985 The major results from SMM are presented as they relate to our understanding of the energy release and particle transportation processes that lead to the high-energy X-ray aspects of solar flares. Evidence is reviewed for a 152–158 day periodicity in various aspects of solar activity including the rate of occurrence of hard X-ray and gamma-ray flares ...

Search for thermonuclear burst oscillations in the Swift/BAT data set
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesThis study comprehensively analyzes type I X-ray bursts observed by Swift/BAT from 2005 to April 2024 to search for X-ray burst oscillations (XBOs) in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries.

The Game of Life on a Magnetar Crust: From Gamma-Ray Flares to FRBs
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 This Letter presents a model to unify the diverse range of magnetar activity, through the building and release of elastic stress from the crust. A cellular automaton drives both local and global yielding of the crust, leading to braiding of coronal loops

Hydrogen-triggered X-Ray Bursts from SAX J1808.4−3658? The Onset of Nuclear Burning
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a study of weak, thermonuclear X-ray bursts from the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4−3658. We focus on a burst observed with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer on 2019 August 9, and describe a similar burst observed ...

X-Ray Bursting Neutron Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987 The maximum peak luminosity of the X-ray bursts from a burster is most likely interpreted as the Eddington luminosity of a helium-rich envelope surrounding a neutron star. If this interpretation is true, we can obtain a relation between the mass and the radius of the neutron star in terms of the maximum effective temperature of bursts.

Monster Radiative Shocks in the Perturbed Magnetospheres of Neutron Stars
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Magnetospheres of neutron stars can be perturbed by star quakes, interaction in a binary system, or sudden collapse of the star. The perturbations are typically in the kilohertz band and excite magnetohydrodynamic waves.
