Different accretion heating of the neutron star crust during multiple outbursts in MAXI J0556-332
A. S. Parikh, J. Homan, R. Wijnands +11
The transient neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary MAXI J0556332 provides a rare opportunity to study NS crust heating and subsequent cooling for multiple outbursts of the sa…
Absence of reflection features in NuSTAR spectra of the luminous neutron star X-ray binary GX 5-1
Jeroen Homan, James F. Steiner, Dacheng Lin +4
We present NuSTAR observations of the luminous neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS LMXB) and Z source GX 5-1. During our three observations made with separations of roughly two…
Evidence for simultaneous jets and disk winds in luminous low-mass X-ray binaries
Jeroen Homan, Joseph Neilsen, Jessamyn L. Allen +5
Recent work on jets and disk winds in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) suggests that they are to a large extent mutually exclusive, with jets observed in spectrally hard states and…
On the geometric nature of low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations in neutron-star low-mass X-ray binaries
Jeroen Homan, Joel K. Fridriksson, Ronald A. Remillard
We report on a detailed analysis of the so-called ~1 Hz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the eclipsing and dipping neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary EXO 0748-676. This type of…
Neutron star crust cooling in the Terzan 5 X-ray transient Swift J174805.3-244637
N. Degenaar, R. Wijnands, A. Bahramian +10
When neutron stars reside in transient X-ray binaries, their crustal layers become heated during accretion outbursts and subsequently cool in quiescence. Observing and modeling thi…
The Reflares and Outburst Evolution in the Accreting Millisecond Pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658: a Disk Truncated Near Co-rotation?
A. Patruno, D. Maitra, P. A. Curran +5
The accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4--3658 shows peculiar low luminosity states known as "reflares" after the end of the main outburst. During this phase the X-ray lu…
