The multiple facets of millisecond pulsar binaries
A. Miraval Zanon, G. Illiano, F. Ambrosino +17
Millisecond pulsar (MSP) binaries are unique laboratories for studying matter and radiation under extreme conditions that are unattainable on Earth. Recent detections of optical mi…
Flashing fast: characterising the 2025 outburst of MAXI J1957+032
A. Sanna, G. Illiano, M. C. Baglio +13
MAXI J1957+032 is an accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar that shows brief, recurrent outbursts in an ultra-compact ~1 h orbit. We characterise the 2025 outburst using X-ray timing a…
An ultraviolet burst oscillation candidate from the low-mass X-ray binary EXO 0748-676
A. Miraval Zanon, F. Ambrosino, G. Illiano +15
X-ray burst oscillations are quasi-coherent periodic signals at frequencies close to the neutron star spin frequency. They are observed during thermonuclear Type I X-ray bursts fro…
Evidence for optical pulsations from a redback millisecond pulsar
A. Papitto, F. Ambrosino, M. Burgay +16
Recent detections of optical pulsations from both a transitional and an accreting millisecond pulsar have revealed unexpectedly bright signals, suggesting that the presence of an a…
Detection of low-luminosity X-ray pulsations from the accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J17511-3057: An ever-thinning thread between bright accretion and sub-luminous states
Giulia Illiano, Alessandro Papitto, Sergio Campana +14
After nearly a decade in quiescence, the accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J175113057 displayed a new outburst on 2025 February 11, its third since discovery, following previous…
Probing multi-band variability and mode switching in the candidate transitional millisecond pulsar 3FGL J1544.6-1125
Giulia Illiano, Francesco Coti Zelati, Arianna Miraval Zanon +20
We present the most extensive high-time resolution multi-band campaign to date on the candidate transitional millisecond pulsar (tMSP) 3FGL J1544.6-1125 in the sub-luminous disk st…
A deep X-ray and UV look into the reflaring stage of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
Caterina Ballocco, Alessandro Papitto, Arianna Miraval Zanon +12
We present an X-ray and UV high-time-resolution monitoring of the final flaring phase of the 2022 outburst of the AMSP SAX J1808.4-3658, based on simultaneous XMM-Newton and HST ob…
Multi-band study of the flaring mode emission in the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038
M. C. Baglio, F. Coti Zelati, A. K. Hughes +17
We present a comprehensive study of the flaring mode of the transitional millisecond pulsar (tMSP) PSR J1023+0038 during its X-ray sub-luminous state, using strictly simultaneous X…
Disk reflection and energetics from the accreting millisecond pulsar SRGA J144459.2-604207
Christian Malacaria, Alessandro Papitto, Sergio Campana +11
Accreting millisecond pulsars (AMSPs) are excellent laboratories to study reflection spectra and their features from an accretion disk truncated by a rapidly rotating magnetosphere…
