Detection of 33.8 ms X-ray pulsations in SAX J0635+0533

G. Cusumano, M. C. Maccarone, L. Nicastro +2

We revisited the BeppoSAX observation of SAX J0635+0533, suggested as a possible counterpart to the gamma-ray source 2EG J0635+0521. We have discovered a 33.8 ms pulsation from the…

Discovery of a faint 437 s X-ray pulsar 1SAX J1452.8-5949

T. Oosterbroek, M. Orlandini, A. N. Parmar +6

A new pulsar, 1SAX J1452.8-5949, was discovered during a BeppoSAX galactic plane survey on 1999 July 20 at R.A.=14h 52m 49s, Dec=-59 49' 18'' (J2000) with a 90% confidence uncertai…

The Radio Afterglow From GRB 980519: A Test of the Jet and Circumstellar Models

D. A. Frail, S. R. Kulkarni, R. Sari +6

We present multi-frequency radio observations from the afterglow of GRB 980519 beginning 7.2 hours after the gamma-ray burst and ending 63 days later. The fast decline in the optic…

Iron line signatures in X-ray afterglows of GRB by BeppoSAX

L. Piro, E. Costa, M. Feroci +12

We report the possible detection (99.3% of statistical significance) of redshifted Fe iron line emission in the X-ray afterglow of Gamma-ray burst GRB970508 observed by BeppoSAX. I…

Discovery of a Hard X-Ray Source, SAX J0635+0533, in the Error Box of the Gamma-Ray Source 2EG 0635+0521

Philip Kaaret, Santina Piraino, Jules Halpern +1

We have discovered an x-ray source, SAX J0635+0533, with a hard spectrum within the error box of the GeV gamma-ray source in Monoceros, 2EG J0635+0521. The unabsorbed x-ray flux is…

The X-ray afterglow of GRB980519

L. Nicastro, L. Amati, L. A. Antonelli +7

Over a total of 20 gamma-ray bursts localized with arcmin accuracies, GRB980519 represents the 13th detected by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras. An X-ray TOO observation performed…

Discovery of Microsecond Soft Lags in the X-Ray Emission of the Atoll Source 4U1636-536

Philip Kaaret, Santina Piraino, Eric C. Ford +1

Exploiting the presence of kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the timing power spectrum, we find that the soft x-ray emission of the neutron-star X-ray binary and atol…

BeppoSAX Observations of the galactic source GS1826-238 in a hard X-ray high state

Stefano Del Sordo, Filippo Frontera, Elena Pian +7

The BeppoSAX Narrow Field Instruments observed the galactic source GS1826-238 in October 1997, following a hard X-ray outburst with a peak flux of about 100 mCrab detected by BATSE…

Hard X-Ray Radiation in the Coma Cluster Spectrum

R. Fusco-Femiano, D. Dal Fiume, L. Feretti +5

Hard X-ray radiation has been detected for the first time in the Coma cluster by BeppoSAX. Thanks to the unprecedented sensitivity of the Phoswich Detection System (PDS) instrument…
