Correlations Between kHz QPOs and Spectral Parameters from Time-Resolved Spectro-Temporal Analysis of 4U 1728-34

Kewal Anand, Ranjeev Misra, J. S. Yadav +1

We present a time-resolved analysis of the persistent emission in 4U 1728--34 using AstroSat observations from 2016 to 2019. We detect kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QP…

Discovery of a new flaring class in GRS 1915+105 using AstroSat

Ruchika Dhaka, JS Yadav, Ranjeev Misra +1

Highly variable Black Hole X-ray Binary (BHXB) GRS~1915+105 has shown many flaring classes when the source oscillates between the High Soft state (HS) and the Hard Intermediate sta…

Study of the q diagram in GX 339-4

Sanyukta Agarwal, J. S. Yadav

Black hole X-ray binary (BHXB) GX 339-4 produces the most frequent X-ray outbursts (every 2-4 years) among known X-ray binary sources in our galaxy. Here we present the study of th…

Time-resolved spectroscopy on the heartbeat state of GRS 1915+105 using AstroSat

Divya Rawat, Ranjeev Misra, Pankaj Jain +1

AstroSat spectra of the black hole system GRS 1915+105 during the heartbeat state (with a varying oscillation period from 150 to 100 secs) were analysed using a truncated relativis…

An alternative scheme to estimate AstroSat/LAXPC background for faint sources

Ranjeev Misra, Jayashree Roy, J. S. Yadav

An alternative scheme is described to estimate the layer 1 LAXPC 20 background for faint sources where the source contribution to the 50-80 keV count rate is less than 0.25 counts/…
