"Hiccup" accretion in the swinging pulsar IGR J18245-2452
C. Ferrigno, E. Bozzo, A. Papitto +7
IGR J18245-2452 is the fifteenth discovered accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar and the first source of this class showing direct evidence for transition between accretion and rotat…
On the nature of the hard X-ray sources SWIFTJ1907.3-2050, IGRJ12123-5802 and IGRJ19552+0044
F. Bernardini, D. de Martino, K. Mukai +7
The INTEGRAL and Swift hard X-ray surveys have identified a large number of new sources, among which many are proposed as Cataclysmic Variables (CVs). Here we present the first det…
QM theory of the thermal electron gyroradius
R. A. Treumann, W. Baumjohann
The average (thermal) gyroradius of charged particles is re-examined from a quantum-mechanical point of view. The straight quantum-mechanical calculation clearly reproduces its con…
Incomplete-exclusion Statistical Mechanics in Non-collisional Violent Relaxation of Celestial Objects
R. A. Treumann, W. Baumjohann
Violent relaxation has been proposed half a century ago to bear responsibility for non-collisional dynamics and formation of gravitationally bound systems of extended celestial obj…
XMM-Newton and Swift observations of XTE J1743-363
E. Bozzo, P. Romano, C. Ferrigno +5
XTEJ1743-363 is a poorly known hard X-ray transient, that displays short and intense flares similar to those observed from Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients. The probable optical co…
Swings between rotation and accretion power in a millisecond binary pulsar
A. Papitto, C. Ferrigno, E. Bozzo +20
It is thought that neutron stars in low-mass binary systems can accrete matter and angular momentum from the companion star and be spun-up to millisecond rotational periods. During…
