Evidence for a black hole in the historical X-ray transient A 1524-61 (=KY TrA)
I. V. Yanes-Rizo, M. A. P. Torres, J. Casares +5
We present VLT spectroscopy, high-resolution imaging and time-resolved photometry of KY TrA, the optical counterpart to the X-ray binary A 1524-61. We perform a refined astrometry…
The omnipresent flux-dependent optical dips of the black hole transient Swift J1357.2-0933
G. Panizo-Espinar, T. Muñoz-Darias, M. Armas Padilla +15
Swift J1357.2-0933 is a black hole transient of particular interest due to the optical, recurrent dips found during its first two outbursts (in 2011 and 2017), with no obvious X-ra…
The orbital period, black hole mass and distance to the X-ray transient GRS 1716-249 (=N Oph 93)
J. Casares, I. V. Yanes-Rizo, M. A. P. Torres +7
We present evidence for a 0.278(8) d (=6.7 h) orbital period in the X-ray transient GRS 1716-249 (=N Oph 93), based on a superhump modulation detected during the 1995 mini-outburst…
A correlation between Ha trough depth and inclination in quiescent X-ray transients: evidence for a low-mass black hole in GRO J0422+32
J. Casares, T. Muñoz-Darias, M. A. P. Torres +11
We present a new method to derive binary inclinations in quiescent black hole (BH) X-ray transients (XRTs), based on the depth of the trough (T) from double-peaked Ha emission prof…
