Chandra follow-up of bursters with low persistent emission
R. Cornelisse, F. Verbunt, J. J. M. in 't Zand +2
We report on Chandra ACIS-S observations of five type I X-ray bursters with low persistent emission: SAX J1324.5-6313, SAX J1752.3-3128, SAX J1753.5-2349, SAX J1806.5-2215 and SAX…
BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras observations of six type I X-ray bursters
R. Cornelisse, F. Verbunt, J. J. M. in 't Zand +7
We have discovered three certain (SAX J1324.5-6313, 2S 1711-339 and SAX J1828.5-1037) and two likely (SAX J1818.7+1424 and SAX J2224.9+5421) new thermonuclear X-ray burst sources w…
Discovery of the neutron star nature of SLX 1737-282
J. J. M. in 't Zand, F. Verbunt, E. Kuulkers +7
SLX 1737-282 is a persistent moderately bright X-ray source 1.2 deg from the Galactic center. X-ray observations with the Wide Field Cameras on BeppoSAX have for the first time rev…
A four-hours long burst from Serpens X-1
R. Cornelisse, E. Kuulkers, J. J. M. in 't Zand +2
During a serendipitous observation of the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras, a very long Type I X-ray burst was observed from the low mass X-ray binary Serpens X-1. The burst lasted for…
A half-a-day long thermonuclear X-ray burst from KS 1731-260
E. Kuulkers, J. J. M. in 't Zand, M. H. van Kerkwijk +7
We report on an approximately twelve hour long X-ray flare from the low-mass X-ray binary KS 1731-260. The flare has a rise time of less than 13 min and declines exponentially with…
A Sample of Radius-Expansion Bursters Observed by the BeppoSAX-WFCs
Massimo Cocchi, A. Bazzano, L. Natalucci +5
Since 1996 a monitoring campaign of the Galactic Bulge region has been performed by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras in the 2-28 keV band. This allowed accurate and unbiased studies…
