An X-ray Polarimeter for Constellation-X
K. Jahoda, K. Black, P. Deines-Jones +4
Polarimetry remains a largely unexploited technique in observational X-ray astronomy which could provide insight in the study of the strong gravity and magnetic fields at the core…
A Review of Disk-Corona Oscillations
J. H. Swank
Low frequency (approximately 0.1-35 Hz) quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO) of the X-ray flux characterize many of the black hole candidates, in particular those which have radio evi…
Recent Observations of X-Ray Emission from Galactic Binary Neutron Stars
Jean Swank
Recent measurements of young accreting binary neutron stars are determining more precise magnetic field and accretion parameters. A low magnetic field accreting, millisecond pulsar…
The Relativistic Astrophysics Explorer: A New Mission for X-Ray Timing
P. Kaaret, J. Grindlay, F. K. Lamb +3
The great success of the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) has given us a new probe to study strong gravitational fields and to measure the physical properties of black holes and…
Discovery of High Frequency Quasi-Periodic Oscillations in 4u1915-05
D. Barret, L. Boirin, J. F. Olive +4
The type I X-ray burster and dipper 4U1915-05 (also known as XB1916-053) was monitored by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer between February and October, 1996. The source was observe…
Spin-down rate of 1E 2259+586 from RXTE observation
A. Baykal, J. H. Swank, M. J. Stark +1
We present new X-ray observations of the X-ray pulsar 1E 2259+586, obtained during March 1997, with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). We have measured the pulse frequency der…
