NICER observations reveal that the X-ray transient MAXI J1348-630 is a Black Hole X-ray binary
L. Zhang, D. Altamirano, V. A. Cuneo +16
We studied the outburst evolution and timing properties of the recently discovered X-ray transient MAXI J1348-630 as observed with NICER. We produced the fundamental diagrams commo…
Optical spectroscopy of 4U 1812-12: an ultra-compact X-ray binary seen through an H II region
M. Armas Padilla, T. Muñoz-Darias, F. Jiménez-Ibarra +6
The persistent, low-luminosity neutron star X-ray binary 4U 1812-12 is a potential member of the scarce family of ultra-compact systems. We performed deep photometric and spectrosc…
Swift/XRT, Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of IGR J17091-3624 as it returns into quiescence
Pereyra, Margarita, Altamirano +11
IGR J17091-3624 is a low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) which received wide attention from the community thanks to its similarities with the bright black hole system GRS 1915+105. Both s…
A NICER look at the state transitions of the black hole candidate MAXI J1535-571 during its reflares
V. A. Cúneo, K. Alabarta, L. Zhang +18
The black hole candidate and X-ray binary MAXI J1535-571 was discovered in September 2017. During the decay of its discovery outburst, and before returning to quiescence, the sourc…
Discovery of optical outflows and inflows in the black hole candidate GRS 1716-249
V. A. Cúneo, T. Muñoz-Darias, J. Sánchez-Sierras +12
We present optical spectroscopy obtained with the GTC, VLT and SALT telescopes during the decline of the 2016-2017 outburst of the black hole candidate GRS 1716-249 (Nova Oph 1993)…
The Changing-look Optical Wind of the Flaring X-ray Transient Swift J1858.6-0814
T. Muñoz-Darias, M. Armas Padilla, F. Jiménez-Ibarra +15
We present the discovery of an optical accretion disk wind in the X-ray transient Swift J1858.6-0814. Our 90-spectrum data set, taken with the 10.4m GTC telescope over 8 different…
