Joint XMM-Newton and NuSTAR Observations of Type I X-ray Bursts from the Dipping Low-Mass X-ray Binary 4U 1323-62

Tugba Boztepe, Tolga Guver, Ersin Gogus +4

In this study, we report partly simultaneous XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations of the bursting, dipping low mass X-ray binary, 4U 1323-62 obtained in 2024. 4U 1323-62 is one of th…

The 2025 outburst of IGR J17511-3057: timing and spectral insights from NICER and NuSTAR

A. Sanna, G. K. Jaisawal, T. E. Strohmayer +13

IGR J17511-3057 was observed in a new outburst phase starting in February 2025 and lasting at least nine days. We investigated the spectral and temporal properties of IGR J17511-30…

The 2020 Superburst of 4U 1608-522 and its impact on the accretion disk

Tugba Boztepe, Tolga Guver, Elif Ece Devecioglu +9

Superbursts are rare events observed from bursting neutron star low mass X-ray binaries. They are thought to originate from unstable burning of the thick layer of Carbon on the sur…
