Six new candidate ultracompact X-ray binaries [PDF]
, 2007 Ultracompact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) appear able to sustain accretion onto the
compact accretor at rates lower than in wider X-ray binaries. This may be
understood by the smaller accretion disks in UCXBs: a lower X-ray luminosity
suffices to keep a disk ...Barret, Bassa, Bird, Burrows, C. B.

, 2014 We study the exceptionally short (32-41 ms) precursors of two
intermediate-duration thermonuclear X-ray bursts observed with RXTE from the

, 2005 We carried out Chandra observations of two low-luminosity low-mass X-ray
binaries, 1RXS J170854.4-321857 and 1RXS J171824.2-402934, for which previously
single X-ray bursts had been detected with the Wide Field Cameras (WFCs) on
board BeppoSAX. Both were Asai, Barret, Boella, Cocchi, Cornelisse, Cornelisse, Davis, Deloye, Dubus, Forman, Garmire, Hameury, Hands, Hoffman, J. J.

probable accretion-powered X-ray pulsar. The X-ray light curve of this binary

, 2013 Thermonuclear shell flashes on neutron stars are detected as bright X-ray
bursts. Traditionally, their decay is modeled with an exponential function.

, 2004 The globular cluster NGC 6440 is known to harbor a bright neutron-star X-ray
transient. We observed the globular cluster with Chandra on two occasions when
the bright transient was in its quiescent state in July 2000 and June 2003
