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…

QPOs and Spectral States in GRS 1915+105
Michael P. Muno, Edward H. Morgan, Ronald A. Remillard
We present results from the analysis of X-ray energy spectra and quasi- periodic oscillations (QPOs) from a set of observations which samples a broad range of time variability in G…

X-ray Nova XTE J1550-564: Discovery of a QPO Near 185 Hz
R. A. Remillard, J. E. McClintock, G. J. Sobczak +4
We have investigated the X-ray timing properties of XTE J1550-564 during 60 RXTE PCA observations made between 1998 September 18 and November 28. We detect quasi-periodic oscillati…
