When A Standard Candle Flickers

Colleen A. Wilson-Hodge, Michael L. Cherry, Wayne H. Baumgartner +27

The Crab Nebula is the only hard X-ray source in the sky that is both bright enough and steady enough to be easily used as a standard candle. As a result, it has been used as a nor…

Super-Orbital Variability in Hard X-rays

S. A. Farrell, D. Barret, G. K. Skinner

We present the results of a study with the \emph{Swift} Burst Alert Telescope in the 14 -- 195 keV range of the long-term variability of 5 low mass X-ray binaries with reported or…

Swift BAT Survey of AGN

J. Tueller, R. F. Mushotzky, S. Barthelmy +5

We present the results of the analysis of the first 9 months of data of the Swift BAT survey of AGN in the 14-195 keV band. Using archival X-ray data or follow-up Swift XRT observa…

EXIST's Gamma-Ray Burst Sensitivity

D. L. Band, J. E. Grindlay, J. Hong +7

We use semi-analytic techniques to evaluate the burst sensitivity of designs for the EXIST hard X-ray survey mission. Applying these techniques to the mission design proposed for t…

Proposed (to) EXIST: Hard X-ray Imaging All Sky Survey/Monitor

J. E. Grindlay, T. A. Prince, F. Harrison +6

The hard x-ray (10-600 keV) sky is inherently time variable and yet has neither been surveyed nor monitored with a sensitive imaging telescope. The Energetic X-ray Imaging Survey T…
