Stable X-ray reverberation lags in the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8-1613
Wei Yu, Sinan Allak, Zi-Xu Yang +3
Aims. We investigate the evolution of X-ray reverberation lags in the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8-1613 during its 2023 outburst, with the aim of probing the inner accreti…
An Insight-HXMT View of the Evolution of the Type-C Quasiperiodic Oscillation during the Flaring State of Swift J1727.8-1613
Min Wei, Xiang Ma, Liang Zhang +16
We present a detailed analysis of the evolution of type-C quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) observed during the flaring state of the recently discovered black hole X-ray binary Swi…
A NICER view of the corona through time-dependent Comptonization of the quasi-periodic oscillations in nine black-hole X-ray binaries
Yuexin Zhang, Mariano Méndez, James F. Steiner +12
We present a systematic study of the evolution of the corona geometry in nine black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) using archival data from NICER. We identify 171 observations exhibi…
Characteristics of the High-frequency Humps in the Black hole X-ray Binary Swift J1727.8--1613
Ze-Xi Li, Liang Zhang, Lian Tao +13
We present a detailed timing analysis of the two high-frequency humps observed in the power density spectrum of Swift J1727.8--1613 up to 100 keV, using data from the Hard X-ray Mo…
Fast Transitions of X-ray Variability in the Neutron Star Low Mass X-ray Binary Cygnus X-2
Liang Zhang, Mariano Méndez, Hua Feng +12
We present a spectral-timing analysis of two NICER observations of the weakly magnetized neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2. During these observations, we detect a rapid…
Spectral analysis of the X-ray flares in the 2023 outburst of the new black binary transient Swift J1727.8--1613 observed with Insight-HXMT
Jia-Ying Cao, Jin-Yuan Liao, Shuang-Nan Zhang +12
The new black hole transient Swift J1727.8--1613 exhibited a series of X-ray flares during its 2023 outburst extensively observed with Insight-HXMT. We analyze the spectra of the f…
