Optical and X-ray variability of two Small Magellanic Cloud X-ray binary pulsars - SXP46.6 and SXP6.85

K. E. McGowan, M. J. Coe, M. P. E. Schurch +3

We present long-term optical and RXTE data of two X-ray binary pulsars in the Small Magellanic Cloud, SXP46.6 and SXP6.85. The optical light curves of both sources show substantial…

The Chandra Small Magellanic Cloud Wing Survey - the search for X-ray Binaries

K. E. McGowan, M. J. Coe, M. P. E. Schurch +6

We have detected 523 sources in a survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) Wing with Chandra. By cross-correlating the X-ray data with optical and near-infrared catalogues we hav…

X-ray bright sources in the Chandra Small Magellanic Cloud Wing Survey - detection of two new pulsars

K. E. McGowan, M. J. Coe, M. Schurch +7

We investigate the X-ray and optical properties of a sample of X-ray bright sources from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) Wing Survey. We have detected two new pulsars with pulse p…
