NICER Observes the Effects of an X-Ray Burst on the Accretion Environment in Aql X-1
L. Keek, Z. Arzoumanian, P. Bult +18
Accretion disks around neutron stars regularly undergo sudden strong irradiation by Type I X-ray bursts powered by unstable thermonuclear burning on the stellar surface. We investi…
LOFT: the Large Observatory For X-ray Timing
M. Feroci, J. W. den Herder, E. Bozzo +245
The LOFT mission concept is one of four candidates selected by ESA for the M3 launch opportunity as Medium Size missions of the Cosmic Vision programme. The launch window is curren…
Origin of intermittent accretion-powered X-ray oscillations in neutron stars with millisecond spin periods
Frederick K. Lamb, Stratos Boutloukos, Sandor Van Wassenhove +3
We have shown previously that many of the properties of persistent accretion-powered millisecond pulsars can be understood if their X-ray emitting areas are near their spin axes an…
A varying kHz peak separation in 4U 1608-52
M. Mendez, M. van der Klis, J. van Paradijs +6
Using a new technique to improve the sensitivity to weak Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPO) we discovered a new QPO peak at about 1100 Hz in the March 1996 outburst observations of…
Discovery of a second kHz QPO peak in 4U 1608-52
M. Mendez, M. van der Klis, J. van Paradijs +6
Using a new technique to improve the sensitivity to weak Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPO) we discovered a new QPO peak at about 1100 Hz in the March 1996 outburst observations of…
