The LOFT perspective on neutron star thermonuclear bursts
J. J. M. in 't Zand, D. Altamirano, D. R. Ballantyne +31
This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…
Discovery of a correlation between the frequency of the mHz quasi-periodic oscillations and the neutron-star temperature in the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53
Ming Lyu, Mariano Mendez, Diego Altamirano
We detected millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in an XMM-Newton observation of the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53. These QPOs have been interpreted as mar…
Broad iron emission line and kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations in the neutron star system 4U 1636-53
Andrea Sanna, Mariano Mendez, Diego Altamirano +3
Both the broad iron (Fe) line and the frequency of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) can potentially provide inde…
Rapid Cooling of the Neutron Star in the Quiescent Super-Eddington Transient XTE J1701-462
Joel K. Fridriksson, Jeroen Homan, Rudy Wijnands +7
We present Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer and Swift observations made during the final three weeks of the 2006-2007 outburst of the super-Eddington neutron star (NS) transient XTE J17…
