The bright black hole X-ray binary 4U 1543--47 during 2021 outburst: a thick accretion disk inflated by high luminosity
S. J. Zhao, L. Tao, P. P. Li +17
The black hole X-ray binary source 4U 1543--47 experienced a super-Eddington outburst in 2021, reaching a peak flux of up to …
Type-A quasi-periodic oscillation in the black hole transient MAXI J1348-630
Liang Zhang, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +12
We present a detailed analysis of the spectral and timing characteristics of a 7-Hz type-A quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) detected in NICER observations of the black hole X-ray b…
Detection of a strong ~2.5 Hz modulation in the Newly Discovered Millisecond Pulsar MAXI J1816-195
P. P. Li, L. Tao, L. Zhang +16
MAXI J181-195 is a newly discovered accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar that went outburst in June 2022. Through timing analysis with NICER and NuSTAR observations, we find a transi…
A variable corona during the transition from type-C to type-B quasi-periodic oscillations in the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070
Ruican Ma, Mariano Mendez, Federico Garcia +3
We analyze a Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) observation of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 during a transition from type-C to type-B quasi-periodic o…
The mHz quasi-regular modulations of 4U 1630--47 during its 1998 outburst
Qingchang Zhao, Hongxing Yin, Lian Tao +19
We present the results of a detailed timing and spectral analysis of the quasi-regular modulation (QRM) phenomenon in the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630--47 during its 1998 outbur…
A spectral-timing study of the inner flow geometry in MAXI J1535--571 with -HXMT and NICER
Wei Yu, Qing-Cui Bu, He-Xin Liu +48
We have performed a spectral-timing analysis on the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1535--571 during its 2017 outburst, with the aim of exploring the evolution of the inner accretion…
In-orbit background simulation of a type-B CATCH satellite
Jingyu Xiao, Liqiang Qi, Shuang-Nan Zhang +23
The Chasing All Transients Constellation Hunters (CATCH) space mission plans to launch three types of micro-satellites (A, B, and C). The type-B CATCH satellites are dedicated to l…
Fast transitions of X-ray variability in the black hole transient GX 339--4: comparison with MAXI J1820+070 and MAXI J1348-630
Zi-Xu Yang, Liang Zhang, S. N. Zhang +30
Fast transitions between different types of power density spectra (PDS) happening over timescales of several tens of seconds are rare phenomena in black hole X-ray binaries. In thi…
Insight-HXMT and GECAM-C observations of the brightest-of-all-time GRB 221009A
Zheng-Hua An, S. Antier, Xing-Zi Bi +174
GRB 221009A is the brightest gamma-ray burst ever detected since the discovery of this kind of energetic explosions. However, an accurate measurement of the prompt emission propert…
A NICER look at the jet-like corona of MAXI J1535-571 through type-B quasi-periodic oscillations
Yuexin Zhang, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +7
MAXI J1535-571 is a black-hole X-ray binary that in 2017 exhibited a very bright outburst which reached a peak flux of up to 5 Crab in the 2-20 keV band. Given the high flux, sever…
