Orbital decay in M82 X-2

Matteo Bachetti, Marianne Heida, Thomas Maccarone +21

M82 X-2 is the first pulsating ultraluminous X-ray source (PULX) discovered. The luminosity of these extreme pulsars, if isotropic, implies an extreme mass transfer rate. An altern…

Science with the Ultraviolet Explorer (UVEX)

S. R. Kulkarni, Fiona A. Harrison, Brian W. Grefenstette +53

UVEX is a proposed medium class Explorer mission designed to provide crucial missing capabilities that will address objectives central to a broad range of modern astrophysics. The…

Quasi-Simultaneous Radio/X-ray Observations of the Candidate Transitional Millisecond Pulsar 3FGL J1544.6-1125 During its Low-Luminosity Accretion-Disc State

Amruta Jaodand, Adam T. Deller, Nina Gusinskaia +8

3FGL J1544.6-1125 is a candidate transitional millisecond pulsar (tMSP). Similar to the well-established tMSPs - PSR J1023+0038, IGR J18245-2452, and XSS J12270-4859 -- 3FGL J1544.…

Discovery of UV millisecond pulsations and moding in the low mass X-ray binary state of transitional millisecond pulsar J1023+0038

Amruta D. Jaodand, Juan V. Hernández Santisteban, Anne M. Archibald +7

PSR J1023+0038 is a rapidly-spinning neutron star with a low-mass-binary companion that switches between a radio pulsar and low-luminosity disk state. In 2013, it transitioned to i…

StrayCats: A catalog of NuSTAR Stray Light Observations

Brian W. Grefenstette, Renee M. Ludlam, Ellen T. Thompson +10

We present StrayCats: a catalog of NuSTAR stray light observations of X-ray sources. Stray light observations arise for sources 1--4 away from the telescope pointing dire…

Confirmation of a Second Propeller: A High-Inclination Twin of AE~Aquarii

Peter Garnavich, Colin Littlefield, R. M. Wagner +4

For decades, AE Aquarii (AE Aqr) has been the only cataclysmic variable star known to contain a magnetic propeller: a persistent outflow whose expulsion from the binary is powered…
