Phase-resolved Deadtime of the Crab Pulsar Using IXPE Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
After receiving an X-ray photon, an X-ray detector is not operational for a duration known as deadtime. It is detector specific and its effect on the data depends upon the luminosity of the source.

Radio Emitting X-ray Binary Stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1996
Some of the most astrophysically interesting objects are found among the radio-emitting X-ray binary stars (REXRB). The class includes the well-studied objects such as SS 433, Cyg X-3 and Sco X-1. The recent discoveries of relativistic ejection of radio knots in the X-ray transients 1915+105 (Mirabel & Rodriguez 1994) and 1655–40 (Hjellming & ...

The Binary X-Ray Stars – the Observational Picture [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1975
When X-ray sources in the galaxy were discovered in 1962 (Giacconi et al., 1962) it was only possible to speculate on their nature, which centered on supernova and cosmic-ray phenomena since these were the only very energetic events known. In particular, the discovery of an X-ray source associated with the Crab Nebula led to the idea that the emission ...

NICER Observations of Thermonuclear Bursts from 4U 1728-34: Detection of Oscillations prior to the Onset of Two Bursts

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present temporal and time-resolved spectral analyses of all the thermonuclear X-ray bursts observed from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1728−34 with NICER from 2017 June to 2019 September.

X-ray counterparts to stellar MeerKAT Galactic-plane compact radio sources

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Radio emission from magnetically active stars arises primarily from non-thermal processes and provides information complementary to their high-energy X-ray emission.

Multi-observatory Study of Young Stellar Energetic Flares (MORYSEF): No Evidence for Abnormally Strong Stellar Magnetic Fields after Powerful X-Ray Flares

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We explore the empirical power-law relationship between X-ray luminosity ( L _X ) and total surface magnetic flux (Φ), established across solar magnetic elements, time- and disk-averaged emission from the Sun, older active stars, and pre-main-sequence ...

Magnetic Activity in X-Ray Stars from eROSITA: Insights from the TESS and LAMOST Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We have focused on investigating X-ray stars obtained from eROSITA Data Release 1 (eRASS1) and conducting crossmatching with the TESS and LAMOST surveys.

Limits to Extracting Neutron-star Physics Constraints from NICER Pulse Profiles

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Modeling energy-dependent X-ray pulse profiles from rotation-powered millisecond pulsars observed with Neutron Star Interior and Composition Explorer (NICER) has emerged as a promising avenue for measuring neutron-star radii and probing the equation of ...
