Observations of the 599 Hz Accreting X-ray Pulsar IGR J00291+5934 during the 2004 Outburst and in Quiescence
M. A. P. Torres, P. G. Jonker, D. Steeghs +10
We report on optical and NIR observations obtained during and after the 2004 December discovery outburst of the X-ray transient and accretion-powered millisecond pulsar IGR J00291+…
INTEGRAL/RossiXTE high-energy observation of a state transition of GX 339-4
T. Belloni, I. Parolin, M. Del Santo +7
On 2004 August 15, we observed a fast (shorter than 10 hours) state transition in the bright black-hole transient GX 339-4 simultaneously with RossiXTE and INTEGRAL. This transitio…
Discovery of a redshifted X-ray emission line in the symbiotic neutron star binary 4U 1700+24
A. Tiengo, D. K. Galloway, T. di Salvo +4
We present the spectral analysis of an XMM-Newton observation of the X-ray binary 4U 1700+24, performed during an outburst in August 2002. The EPIC-PN spectrum above 1 keV can be m…
Multi-Temperature Blackbody Spectra of Thin Accretion Disks With and Without a Zero-Torque Inner Boundary Condition
E. R. Zimmerman, R. Narayan, J. E. McClintock +1
The standard spectral model for analyzing the soft component of thermal emission from a thin accretion disk around a black hole is the multi-temperature blackbody (MTB) model. The…
Relativistic Iron Lines in Galactic Black Holes: Recent Results and Lines in the ASCA Archive
J. M. Miller, A. C. Fabian, M. A. Nowak +1
Recent observations with Chandra and XMM-Newton, aided by broad-band spectral coverage from RXTE, have revealed skewed relativistic iron emission lines in stellar-mass Galactic bla…
Chandra Detections of Two Quiescent Black Hole X-Ray Transients
John A. Tomsick, Stephane Corbel, Rob Fender +6
Using the Chandra X-ray Observatory, we have detected the black hole transients V4641 Sgr and XTE J1859+226 in their low luminosity, quiescent states. The 0.3-8 keV luminosities ar…
