Sharp Periodic Flares and Long-Term Variability in the High-Mass X-ray Binary XTE J1829-098 from RXTE PCA, Swift BAT and MAXI Observations

Robin H. D. Corbet, Ralf Ballhausen, Peter A. Becker +20

XTE J1829-098 is a transient X-ray pulsar with a period of ~7.8 s. It is a candidate Be star system, although the evidence for this is not yet definitive. We investigated the twent…

A NICER View of PSR J12311411: A Complex Case

Tuomo Salmi, Julia S. Deneva, Paul S. Ray +16

Recent constraints on neutron star mass and radius have advanced our understanding of the equation of state (EOS) of cold dense matter. Some of them have been obtained by modeling…

NICER Discovery that SRGA J144459.2-604207 is an Accreting Millisecond X-ray Pulsar

Mason Ng, Paul S. Ray, Andrea Sanna +17

We present the discovery, with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), that SRGA J144459.2-604207 is a 447.9 Hz accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar (AMXP), which und…
