Clockwise evolution in the hardness-intensity diagram of the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1910.2-0546
Payaswini Saikia, David M. Russell, Saarah F. Pirbhoy +5
We present a detailed study of optical data from the 2012 outburst of the candidate black hole X-ray binary Swift J1910.2-0546 using the Faulkes Telescope and Las Cumbres Observato…
Evidence for mass-dependent peculiar velocities in compact object binaries: Towards better constraints on natal kicks
Yue Zhao, Poshak Gandhi, Cordelia Dashwood Brown +4
We compile a catalogue of low-mass and high-mass X-ray binaries, some recently reported binaries that likely host a neutron star (NS) or a black hole (BH), and binary pulsars (a pu…
Millihertz X-ray variability during the 2019 outburst of black hole candidate Swift~J1357.20933
Aru Beri, Vishal Gaur, Phil Charles +8
Swift J1357.20933 is a black-hole candidate X-ray transient, which underwent its third outburst in 2019, during which several multi-wavelength observations were carried out.~Her…
Seven reflares, a mini-outburst and an outburst : High amplitude optical variations in the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1910.2-0546
Payaswini Saikia, David M. Russell, Saarah F. Pirbhoy +5
We present long-term (2012-2022) optical monitoring of the candidate black hole X-ray binary Swift J1910.2-0546 with the Faulkes Telescopes and Las Cumbres Observatory (LCO) networ…
Monitoring observations of SMC X-1's excursions (MOOSE)-II: A new excursion accompanies spin-up acceleration
Chin-Ping Hu, Kristen C. Dage, William I. Clarkson +11
SMC X-1 is a high-mass X-ray binary showing superorbital modulation with an unstable period. Previous monitoring shows three excursion events in 1996--1998, 2005--2007, and 2014--2…
Measuring interacting binary mass functions with X-ray fluorescence
Cordelia Dashwood Brown, Poshak Gandhi, Phil Charles
The masses of compact objects in X-ray binaries are best constrained through dynamical measurements, relying on radial velocity curves of the companion star. In anticipation of upc…
