The origin of the supersoft X-ray--optical/UV flux anticorrelation in the symbiotic binary AG Draconis

A. Skopal, M. Sekeras, R. Gonzalez-Riestra +1

AG Draconis produces a strong supersoft X-ray emission.The X-ray and optical/UV fluxes are in a strict anticorrelation throughout the active and quiescent phases. The aim of this c…

Spin-down rate and inferred dipole magnetic field of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41

P. Esposito, M. Burgay, A. Possenti +11

Using Chandra data taken on 2008 June, we detected pulsations at 2.59439(4) s in the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41. This is the second measurement of the source spin period a…

Discovery of extended X-ray emission around the highly magnetic RRAT J1819-1458

N. Rea, M. A. McLaughlin, B. M. Gaensler +7

We report on the discovery of extended X-ray emission around the high magnetic field Rotating Radio Transient J1819-1458. Using a 30ks Chandra ACIS-S observation, we found signific…

Analysis of hard X-ray eclipse in SS433 from INTEGRAL observations

A. M. Cherepashchuk, R. A. Sunyaev, K. A. Postnov +2

The analysis of hard X-ray INTEGRAL observations (2003-2008) of superaccreting galactic microquasar SS433 at precessional phases of the source with the maximum disk opening angle i…

Modelling magnetars' high energy emission through Resonant Cyclotron Scattering

D. Gotz, N. Rea, S. Zane +2

We present a systematic fit of a model of resonant cyclotron scattering (RCS) to the X and soft gamma-ray data of four magnetars, including anomalous X-ray pulsars, and soft gamma…

A Model for Emission from Jets in X-ray Binaries: Consequences of a Single Acceleration Episode

Asaf Pe'er, Piergiorgio Casella

There are strong evidence for powerful jets in the low/hard state of black-hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs). Here, we present a model in which electrons are accelerated once at the bas…

A decade of timing an accretion-powered millisecond pulsar: The continuing spin down and orbital evolution of SAX J1808.4-3658

J. M. Hartman, A. Patruno, D. Chakrabarty +4

The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer has observed five outbursts from the transient 2.5 ms accretion-powered pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during 1998-2008. We present a pulse timing study of…
