Decades' long-term variations in NS-LMXBs observed with MAXI/GSC, RXTE/ASM and Ginga/ASM

Kazumi Asai, Tatehiro Mihara, Masaru Matsuoka

We investigated the decades' long-term X-ray variations in bright low-mass X-ray binaries containing a neutron star (NS-LMXB). The light curves of MAXI/GSC and RXTE/ASM covers $\si…

Orbital modulations of X-ray light curves of Cyg X-1 in its low/hard and high/soft states

Juri Sugimoto, Shunji Kitamoto, Tatehiro Mihara +1

The black hole binary Cygnus X-1 has a 5.6 day orbital period. We first detected a clear intensity modulation with the orbital period in its high/soft state with 6 year MAXI data,…

Large X-ray Flares on Stars Detected with MAXI/GSC: A Universal Correlation between the Duration of a Flare and its X-ray Luminosity

Yohko Tsuboi, Kyohei Yamazaki, Yasuharu Sugawara +39

23 giant flares from 13 active stars (eight RS CVn systems, one Algol system, three dMe stars and one YSO) were detected during the first two years of our all-sky X-ray monitoring…

Maxi observations of long X-ray bursts

Motoko Serino, Wataru Iwakiri, Toru Tamagawa +5

We report nine long X-ray bursts from neutron stars, detected with Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI). Some of these bursts lasted for hours, and hence are qualified as superbur…

Search for Soft X-ray Flashes at Fireball Phase of Classical/Recurrent Novae using MAXI/GSC data

Mikio Morii, Hitoshi Yamaoka, Tatehiro Mihara +2

We searched for precursive soft X-ray flashes (SXFs) associated with optically-discovered classical or recurrent novae in the data of five-years all-sky observations with Gas Slit…

MAXI observations of long-term variations of Cygnus X-1 in the low/hard and the high/soft states

Juri Sugimoto, Tatehiro Mihara, Shunji Kitamoto +5

Long-term X-ray variability of the black hole binary, Cygnus X-1, was studied with five years of MAXI data from 2009 to 2014, which include substantial periods of the high/soft sta…
