The ultraluminous X-ray source M81 X-6: a weakly magnetised neutron star with a precessing accretion disc?
Roberta Amato, Andres Gúrpide, Natalie A. Webb +2
We investigate the nature of the ULX M81 X-6, which has been suggested to harbour a neutron star (NS), by studying its long-term X-ray spectral and temporal evolution, using the ri…
The Athena X-ray Integral Field Unit: a consolidated design for the system requirement review of the preliminary definition phase
Didier Barret, Vincent Albouys, Jan-Willem den Herder +296
The Athena X-ray Integral Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer, studied since 2015 for flying in the mid-30s on the Athena space X-ray Observatory, a versatile ob…
Disk precession to explain the super-orbital modulation of LMC X-4: results from the Swift monitoring campaign
Elena Ambrosi, Antonino d'Aì, Melania del Santo +4
We studied the spectral changes of the high-mass X-ray binary system LMC X-4 to understand the origin and mechanisms beyond its super-orbital modulation (30.4 days). To this aim, w…
