Observatory Science with eXTP

Ping Zhou, Jirong Mao, Liang Zhang +97

Scheduled for launch in 2030, the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarization (eXTP) telescope is a Chinese space-based mission aimed at studying extreme conditions and phenomena in ast…

Highly-coherent quasi-periodic oscillations in the 'heartbeat' black hole X-ray binary IGR J17091-3624

Jingyi Wang, Erin Kara, Jeroen Homan +13

IGR J17091-3624 is a black hole X-ray binary (BHXB), often referred to as the 'twin' of GRS 1915+105 because it is the only other known BHXB that can show exotic 'heartbeat'-like v…

The 2022 Outburst of IGR J17091-3624: Connecting the exotic GRS 1915+105 to standard black hole X-ray binaries

Jingyi Wang, Erin Kara, Javier A. García +13

While the standard X-ray variability of black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) is stochastic and noisy, there are two known BHXBs that exhibit exotic `heartbeat'-like variability in the…

Unveiling hidden variability components in accreting X-ray binaries using both the Fourier power and cross spectra

Mariano Mendez, Valentina Peirano, Federico Garcia +3

We present a novel method for measuring the lags of (weak) variability components in neutron-star and black-hole low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). For this we assume that the power…

Chasing the break: Tracing the full evolution of a black hole X-ray binary jet with multi-wavelength spectral modeling

Constanza Echiburú-Trujillo, Alexandra J. Tetarenko, Daryl Haggard +35

Black hole X-ray binaries (BH XRBs) are ideal targets to study the connection between accretion inflow and jet outflow. Here we present quasi-simultaneous, multi-wavelength observa…

An underlying clock in the extreme flip-flop state transitions of the black hole transient Swift J1658.2-4242

David Bogensberger, Gabriele Ponti, Chichuan Jin +8

Aims: Flip-flops are top-hat-like X-ray flux variations which occur in some transient accreting black hole binary systems and feature simultaneous changes in the spectral hardness…
