Peter Bult, Giulio C. Mancuso, Tod E. Strohmayer +11
We present observations of the historic transient 4U 1730-22 as observed with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER). After remaining in quiescence since its 1972 d…
The discovery of the 528.6 Hz accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816-195
Peter Bult, Diego Altamirano, Zaven Arzoumanian +15
We present the discovery of 528.6 Hz pulsations in the new X-ray transient MAXI J1816-195. Using NICER, we observed the first recorded transient outburst from the neutron star low-…
