A simple relation: Neutron star magnetic field strength and spectral shape at low mass accretion rates

Nicolas Zalot, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Aafia Zainab +8

The X-ray spectra of neutron stars with moderate magnetic fields ( G) in high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) at low X-ray luminosities ( e…

Flux variability of the "10 keV feature" of 4U 0115+63

Katrin Berger, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Ralf Ballhausen +14

X-ray spectra of accretion-powered X-ray pulsars can often be described using a power-law continuum with a high-energy cutoff, which might be further modified by additional spectra…

Don't torque like that. Measuring compact object magnetic fields with analytic torque models

J. J. R. Stierhof, E. Sokolova-Lapa, K. Berger +10

Context. Changes of the rotational period observed in various magnetized accreting sources are generally attributed to the interaction between the in-falling plasma and the large-s…

Multiwavelength study of 1eRASS J085039.9-421151 with eROSITA NuSTAR and X-shooter

Aafia Zainab, Artur Avakyan, Victor Doroshenko +23

The eROSITA instrument on board Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma has completed four scans of the X-ray sky, leading to the detection of almost one million X-ray sources in eRASS1 only, incl…

Sharp Periodic Flares and Long-Term Variability in the High-Mass X-ray Binary XTE J1829-098 from RXTE PCA, Swift BAT and MAXI Observations

Robin H. D. Corbet, Ralf Ballhausen, Peter A. Becker +20

XTE J1829-098 is a transient X-ray pulsar with a period of ~7.8 s. It is a candidate Be star system, although the evidence for this is not yet definitive. We investigated the twent…

Multi-wavelength study of Mrk 421 during a TeV flare

A. Gokus, A. Kreikenbohm, K. Leiter +31

The blazar Mrk 421 shows frequent, short flares in the TeV energy regime. Due to the fast nature of such episodes, we often fail to obtain sufficient simultaneous information about…
