An Extended and More Sensitive Search for Periodicities in RXTE/ASM X-ray Light Curves
Alan M. Levine, Hale V. Bradt, Deepto Chakrabarty +2
We present the results of a systematic search in approximately 14 years of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer All-Sky Monitor data for evidence of periodicities not reported by Wen et al.…
A Systematic Search for Periodicities in RXTE/ASM Data
Linqing Wen, Alan M. Levine, Robin H. D. Corbet +1
We present the results of a systematic search in 8.5 years of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer All-Sky Monitor data for evidence of periodicities. The search was conducted by applicatio…
HE 0435-1223: a wide separation quadruple QSO and gravitational lens
Lutz Wisotzki, Paul L. Schechter, Hale V. Bradt +2
We report the discovery of a new gravitationally lensed QSO, at a redshift z = 1.689, with four QSO components in a cross-shaped arrangement around a bright galaxy. The maximum sep…
Observations of Gamma-ray Bursts with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer
Hale Bradt, Alan M. Levine, Francis E. Marshall +3
The role of the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) in the study of Gamma-ray Bursts (GRBs) is reviewed. Through April 2001, the All-Sky Monitor (ASM) and the Proportional Counter A…
Highlights of RXTE Studies of Compact Objects after ~5 Years
H. Bradt, R. Rothschild, J. Swank
Observations with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) have led to fundamental progress in the study of compact objects, in particular neutron stars and black holes. In this pape…
Use of Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) Detectors for an Advanced X-ray Monitor
R. A. Remillard, A. M. Levine, E. A. Boughan +5
We describe a concept for a NASA SMEX Mission in which Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors, developed at CERN, are adapted for use in X-ray astronomy. These detectors can be us…
