A NICER look at the state transitions of the black hole candidate MAXI J1535-571 during its reflares
V. A. Cúneo, K. Alabarta, L. Zhang +18
The black hole candidate and X-ray binary MAXI J1535-571 was discovered in September 2017. During the decay of its discovery outburst, and before returning to quiescence, the sourc…
NICER uncovers the transient nature of the type-B quasi-periodic oscillation in the black hole candidate MAXI J1348-630
L. Zhang, D. Altamirano, P. Uttley +13
We present a systematic spectral-timing analysis of a fast appearance/disappearance of a type-B quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO), observed in four NICER observations of MAXI J1348-…
NICER observations reveal that the X-ray transient MAXI J1348-630 is a Black Hole X-ray binary
L. Zhang, D. Altamirano, V. A. Cuneo +16
We studied the outburst evolution and timing properties of the recently discovered X-ray transient MAXI J1348-630 as observed with NICER. We produced the fundamental diagrams commo…
Determination of the mass and energy of primary cosmic rays above 100 TeV
R. K. Dey, S. Dam, S. Ray +2
This analysis aims to determine the mass composition and energy of cosmic rays at energies above 100 TeV based on the lateral distribution of extensive air showers. Here, we propos…
Probing strain modulation in a gate-defined one dimensional electron system
M. H. Fauzi, M. F. Sahdan, M. Takahashi +5
Gate patterning on semiconductors is routinely used to electrostatically restrict electron movement into reduced dimensions. At cryogenic temperatures, where most studies are carri…
