Unprecedentedly bright X-ray flaring in Cygnus X-1 observed by INTEGRAL
P. Thalhammer, T. Bouchet, J. Rodriguez +15
We study three extraordinarily bright X-ray flares originating from Cyg X-1 seen on 2023 July 10 detected with INTEGRAL. The flares had a duration on the order of only ten minutes…
INTEGRAL/IBIS polarization detection in the hard and soft intermediate states of Swift J1727.8-1613
Tristan Bouchet, Jérôme Rodriguez, Floriane Cangemi +5
Soft gamma-ray emission (100 keV -- 10 MeV) has previously been detected in the hard state of several microquasars. In some sources, this emission was found to be highly polarized…
Drop in the hard pulsed fraction and a candidate cyclotron line in IGR J16320-4751 seen by NuSTAR
Arash Bodaghee, Alan J. -L. Chiu, John A. Tomsick +10
We report on a timing and spectral analysis of a 50-ks NuSTAR observation of IGR J16320-4751 (= AX J1631.9-4752); a high-mass X-ray binary hosting a slowly-rotating neutron star. I…
INTEGRAL study of MAXI J1535-571, MAXI J1820+070 and MAXI J1348-630 outbursts -- I. Detection and polarization properties of the high-energy emission
F. Cangemi, J. Rodriguez, T. Belloni +5
In black hole X-ray binaries, a non-thermal high-energy component is sometimes detected at energies above 200 keV. The origin of this component is debated and distinct spectral mod…
The spectral-timing analysis of Cygnus X-1 with Insight-HXMT
M. Zhou, V. Grinberg, Q. -C. Bu +12
Cygnus X-1, as the first discovered black hole binary, is a key source for understanding the mechanisms of state transitions, and the scenarios of accretion in extreme gravity fiel…
Discovery of X-ray Pulsations from the INTEGRAL Source IGR J11014-6103
J. P. Halpern, J. A. Tomsick, E. V. Gotthelf +6
We report the discovery of PSR J1101-6101, a 62.8 ms pulsar in IGR J11014-6103, a hard X-ray source with a jet and a cometary tail that strongly suggests it is moving away from the…
Long term variability of Cygnus X-1 V. State definitions with all sky monitors
V. Grinberg, N. Hell, K. Pottschmidt +14
We present a scheme to determine the spectral state of the canonical black hole Cyg X-1 using data from previous and current X-ray all sky monitors (RXTE-ASM, Swift-BAT, MAXI, and…
A Suzaku X-ray observation of one orbit of the supergiant fast X-ray transient IGR J16479-4514
L. Sidoli, P. Esposito, V. Sguera +6
We report on a 250 ks long X-ray observation of the supergiant fast X-ray transient (SFXT) IGR J16479-4514 performed with Suzaku in 2012 February. About 80% of the short orbital pe…
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…
X-ray and Near Infrared observations of the obscured accreting pulsar IGR J18179-1621
M. A. Nowak, A. Paizis, J. Rodriguez +6
IGR J18179-1621 is an obscured accreting X-ray pulsar discovered by INTEGRAL on 2012 February 29. We report on our 20 ksec Chandra-High Energy Transmission Gratings Spectrometer ob…
Clustering between high-mass X-ray binaries and OB associations in the Milky Way
Arash Bodaghee, John A. Tomsick, Jerome Rodriguez +1
We present the first direct measurement of the spatial cross-correlation function of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) and active OB star-forming complexes in the Milky Way. This re…
Polarized Gamma-ray Emission from the Galactic Black Hole Cygnus X-1
P. Laurent, J. Rodriguez, J. Wilms +3
Because of their inherently high flux allowing the detection of clear signals, black hole X-ray binaries are interesting candidates for polarization studies, even if no polarizatio…
Broadband Suzaku observations of IGR J16207-5129
Arash Bodaghee, John A. Tomsick, Jerome Rodriguez +3
An analysis of IGR J16207-5129 is presented based on observations taken with Suzaku. The data set represents ~80 ks of effective exposure time in a broad energy range between 0.5 a…
Long-term multi-wavelength studies of GRS 1915+105 I. A high-energy and mid-infrared focus with RXTE, INTEGRAL, and Spitzer
F. Rahoui, S. Chaty, J. Rodriguez +3
To date, mid-infrared properties of Galactic black hole binaries have barely been investigated in the framework of multi-wavelength campaigns. Yet, studies in this spectral domain…
