GeoCache: Training-Free Acceleration of Multi-View Texture Diffusion via Geometric Delta Transport
Haotang Li, Zhenyu Qi, Shaohan Henry Wang +6
Geometry-conditioned multi-view diffusion enables high-quality 3D texture generation, but its repeated per-view denoiser evaluations introduce substantial computational cost. Exist…
Energy-resolved pulse profiles of Vela X-1: cross-calibrating XMM-Newton and NuSTAR to trace spectral features
Dimitrios K. Maniadakis, Antonino D'Aì, Camille M. Diez +12
Pulse profiles probe the emission geometry of accreting X-ray pulsars, but their observed shapes may depend on instrumental response and observational setup. The pulsed fraction sp…
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…
The elusive cyclotron line in 4U 1901+03: hidden, yet present
Elena Ambrosi, Antonino D' Aì, Giancarlo Cusumano +8
Context. Cyclotron resonant scattering features (CRSFs) in accreting X-ray pulsars are often difficult to detect, especially when shallow or variable. Recent studies have shown tha…
XMM-Newton Observations of Flares and a Possible Pulse Dropout in the Supergiant X-ray binary 4U 1909+07
Joel B. Coley, Ralf Ballhausen, McKinley Brumback +9
We report on a pair of X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) observations of the Supergiant X-ray binary 4U 1909+07, which were performed on 2021 October 3 and 2021 October 8, re…
How the spin-phase variability of cyclotron lines shapes the pulsed fraction spectra: insights from 4U 1538-52
Dimitrios K. Maniadakis, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Antonino D'Aì +15
We study the energy-dependent pulse profile of 4U 1538-52 and its phase-dependent spectral variability, with emphasis on the behavior around the cyclotron resonant scattering featu…
