Impact of Accretion Assumptions on Pulse Profile Modelling of Superburst Oscillations in 4U 1636-536

Yves Kini, Anna L. Watts, Tuomo Salmi +7

Modelling the coherent pulsations observed during thermonuclear bursts offers a valuable method to probe the poorly understood equation of state of dense and cold matter. Here we a…

Thermonuclear explosions on neutron stars reveal the speed of their jets

Thomas D. Russell, Nathalie Degenaar, Jakob van den Eijnden +6

Relativistic jets are observed from accreting and cataclysmic transients throughout the Universe, and have a profound affect on their surroundings. Despite their importance, their…

ESA Science Programme Missions: Contributions and Exploitation -- INTEGRAL Observing Time Proposals

Erik Kuulkers, Celia Sanchez-Fernandez, Arvind N. Parmar

We examine the outcomes of the regular announcements of observing opportunities for ESA's gamma-ray observatory INTEGRAL issued between 2000 and 2021. We investigate how success ra…

Links between quasi-periodic oscillations and accretion states in neutron star low mass X-ray binaries

S. E. Motta, A. Rouco-Escorial, E. Kuulkers +2

We analysed the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) data from a sample of bright accreting neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). With the aim of studying the quasi-peri…

The LOFT Ground Segment

E. Bozzo, A. Antonelli, A. Argan +27

LOFT, the Large Observatory For X-ray Timing, was one of the ESA M3 mission candidates that completed their assessment phase at the end of 2013. LOFT is equipped with two instrumen…
