Phase Resolved Spectroscopy of Burst Oscillations: Searching for Rotational Doppler Shifts
Tod E. Strohmayer
X-ray brightness oscillations with frequencies from 300 - 600 Hz have been observed in six low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) bursters with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). These…
Oscillations During Thermonuclear X-ray Bursts: A New Probe of Neutron Stars
Tod E. Strohmayer
Observations of thermonuclear (Type I) X-ray bursts from neutron stars in low mass X-ray binaries (LMXB) with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) have revealed large amplitude,…
The orbital period of the recurrent X-ray transient in Terzan 6
J. J. M. in 't Zand, A. Bazzano, M Cocchi +11
Four or five new outbursts were detected of the bright X-ray transient GRS 1747-312 in the globular cluster Terzan 6 between 1996 and 1999, through monitoring campaigns with the Wi…
Spin Down of Pulsations in the Cooling Tail of an X-ray Burst from 4U 1636-53
Tod E. Strohmayer
We report the discovery with the proportional counter array (PCA) onboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) of a decrease in the frequency of X-ray brightness oscillations in…
Variable Spin-down in the Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1900+14 and Correlations with Burst Activity
Peter M. Woods, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Jan van Paradijs +7
We have analyzed Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer Proportional Counter Array observations of the pulsed emission from SGR 1900+14 during September 1996, June - October 1998, and early 1…
On the Frequency Evolution of X-ray Brightness Oscillations During Thermonuclear X-ray Bursts: Evidence for Coherent Oscillations
Tod E. Strohmayer, Craig B. Markwardt
We investigate the time dependence of the frequency of X-ray brightness oscillations during thermonuclear bursts from several neutron star low mass X-ray binaries. We find that the…
