X-ray view of emission lines in optical spectra: Spectral analysis of the two low-mass X-ray binary systems Swift J1357.2-0933 and MAXI J1305-704
A. Anitra, C. Miceli, T. Di Salvo +6
We propose a novel approach for determining the orbital inclination of low-mass X-ray binary systems by modelling the H and H line profiles emitted by the accretion disc, wit…
A Hard Look at the Neutron Stars and Accretion Disks in 4U 1636-53, GX 17+2, and 4U 1705-44 with
R. M. Ludlam, J. M. Miller, M. Bachetti +9
We present observations of neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binaries: 4U 1636-53, GX 17+2, and 4U 1705-44. We observed 4U 1636-53 in the hard state, with an Eddingt…
Constraining the properties of neutron star crusts with the transient low-mass X-ray binary Aql X-1
A. C. Waterhouse, N. Degenaar, R. Wijnands +4
Aql X-1 is a prolific transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary that exhibits an accretion outburst approximately once every year. Whether the thermal X-rays detected in interve…
Multi-Wavelength Coverage of State Transitions in the New Black Hole X-Ray Binary Swift J1910.2-0546
N. Degenaar, D. Maitra, E. M. Cackett +11
Understanding how black holes accrete and supply feedback to their environment is one of the outstanding challenges of modern astrophysics. Swift J1910.2-0546 is a candidate black…
