Cyclotron lines in subcritical X-ray pulsars: Monte Carlo simulations reveal the origin of the observed variability
Prodromos Fotiadis, Nick Loudas, Nikolaos D. Kylafis +1
Observed cyclotron resonant scattering features (CRSFs) in X-ray pulsars (XRPs) exhibit strong variability. In the subcritical luminosity regime, the centroid energy () a…
The role of outflows in black-hole X-ray binaries
N. Kylafis, P. Reig
The hot inner flow in black-hole X-ray binaries is not just a static corona rotating around the black hole, but it must be partially outflowing. We have developed a model, in which…
A quantitative explanation of the cyclotron-line variation in accreting magnetic neutron stars of super-critical luminosity
Nick Loudas, Nikolaos D. Kylafis, Joachim E. Trümper
Magnetic neutron stars (NSs) often exhibit a cyclotron resonant scattering feature (CRSF) in their X-ray spectra. Cyclotron lines are believed to form in the radiative shock in the…
Cyclotron line formation in the radiative shock of an accreting magnetized neutron star
Nick Loudas, Nikolaos D. Kylafis, Joachim E. Trümper
Magnetic neutron stars (NSs) often exhibit a cyclotron resonant scattering feature (CRSF) in their X-ray spectra, but the site of the CRSF formation is still an open puzzle. A prom…
A multilevel implementation of the Goldreich-Kylafis effect into the radiative transfer code PyRaTE
Aris Tritsis, Nikolaos D. Kylafis
Among all the available observational techniques for studying magnetic fields in the dense cold phase of the interstellar medium, linear polarization of spectral lines, referred to…
A quantitative explanation of the radio--X-ray correlation in black-hole X-ray binaries
Nikolaos D. Kylafis, Pablo Reig, Alexandros Tsouros
The observed correlation between the radio and X-ray fluxes in the hard state of black-hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) has been around for more than two decades. It is currently accep…
