The Outbursts and Orbit of the Accreting Pulsar GS 1843-02 = 2S 1845-024
Mark H. Finger, Lars Bildsten, Deepto Chakrabarty +5
We present observations of a series of 10 outbursts of pulsed hard X-ray flux from the transient 10.6 mHz accreting pulsar GS 1843-02, using the Burst and Transient Source Experime…

Wei Cui, S. N. Zhang, Wan Chen +1
We report the discovery of strong aperiodic X-ray variability and quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the X-ray light curves of a new X-ray Nova, XTE J1550-564, and the evolution o…
Measurement of Hard Lags and Coherences in the X-Ray Flux of Accreting Neutron Stars and Comparison with Accreting Black Holes
Eric C. Ford, Michiel van der Klis, Mariano Mendez +2
Using the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer we have measured lags of the 9 to 33 keV photons relative to the 2 to 9 keV photons in the timing noise between 0.01 and 100 Hz in the accreti…
Continuation for Nonlinear Elliptic Partial Differential Equations Discretized by the Multiquadric Method
A. I. Fedoseyev, M. J. Friedman, E. J. Kansa
The Multiquadric Radial Basis Function (MQ) Method is a meshless collocation method with global basis functions. It is known to have exponentional convergence for interpolation pro…
The Ulysses Supplement to the BATSE 4Br Catalog of Cosmic Gamma-Ray Bursts
K. Hurley, M. S. Briggs, R. M. Kippen +5
We present Interplanetary Network localization information for 147 gamma-ray bursts observed by the Burst and Transient Source Experiment between the end of the 3rd BATSE catalog a…
The Ulysses Supplement to the BATSE 3B Catalog of Cosmic Gamma-Ray Bursts
K. Hurley, M. S. Briggs, R. M. Kippen +5
We present Interplanetary Network localization information for 218 gamma-ray bursts in the 3rd BATSE catalog, obtained by analyzing the arrival times of these bursts at the Ulysses…
No Evidence for Gamma-Ray Burst/Abell Cluster or Gamma- Ray Burst/Radio-Quiet Quasar Correlations
K. Hurley, D. H. Hartmann, C. Kouveliotou +4
We examine the recent claims that cosmic gamma-ray bursts are associated with either radio-quiet quasars or Abell clusters. These associations were based on positional coincidences…
Reactivation and Precise IPN Localization of the Soft Gamma Repeater SGR1900+14
K. Hurley, C. Kouveliotou, P. Woods +5
In 1998 May, the soft gamma repeater SGR1900+14 emerged from several years of quiescence and emitted a series of intense bursts, one with a time history unlike any previously obser…
ASCA Discovery of an X-ray Pulsar in the Error Box of SGR1900+14
K. Hurley, P. Li, C. Kouveliotou +9
We present a 2 - 10 keV ASCA observation of the field around the soft gamma repeater SGR1900+14. One quiescent X-ray source was detected in this observation, and it was in the SGR…
Dependence of the Frequency of the Kilohertz Quasi-Periodic Oscillations on X-ray Count Rate and Colors in 4U 1608-52
Mariano Mendez, Michiel van der Klis, Eric C. Ford +2
We present new results based on observations carried out with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer during the decay of an outburst of the low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) and atoll source 4…
X-Ray Spectral Behavior of the Relativistic Jet Source Cygnus X-3
M. L. McCollough, C. R. Robinson, S. N. Zhang +13
Cyg X-3 is an unusual X-ray binary which shows remarkable correlative behavior between the hard X-ray, soft X-ray, and the radio. We present an analysis of these long term light cu…
Hard X-ray variability of the black-hole candidate GRO J0422+32 during its 1992 outburst
F. van der Hooft, C. Kouveliotou, J. van Paradijs +7
We have studied the hard X-ray variability of the soft X-ray transient GRO J0422+32 with BATSE in the 20-100 keV energy band. Our analysis covers 180 days following the first X-ray…
The eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable GS Pavonis: Evidence for disk radius changes
Paul J. Groot, Thomas Augusteijn, Orly Barziv +1
We have obtained differential time series photometry of the cataclysmic variable GS Pavonis over a timespan of 2 years. These show that this system is deeply eclipsing (~2-3.5 mag)…
Spectral Hardness Decay with Respect to Fluence in BATSE Gamma-Ray Bursts
A. Crider, E. P. Liang, R. D. Preece +5
We have analyzed the evolution of the spectral hardness parameter Epk as a function of fluence in gamma-ray bursts. We fit 41 pulses within 26 bursts with the trend reported by Lia…
Discovery of Correlated Behavior Between the HXR and the Radio Bands in Cygnus X-3
M. L. McCollough, C. R. Robinson, S. N. Zhang +8
Using CGRO/BATSE hard X-ray (HXR) data and GHz radio monitoring data from the Green Bank Interferometer (GBI), we have performed a long term study ( 1800 days) of the unusual…
