Probing the energy and luminosity-dependent spectro-timing properties of RX J0440.9+4431 with AstroSat

Rahul Sharma, Manoj Mandal, Sabyasachi Pal +3

The Be/X-ray binary pulsar RX J0440.9+4431 went through a giant outburst in December 2022 with a peak flux of 2.3 Crab in 15--50 keV. We studied the broad-band timing and spe…

Energy dependence of Quasi-periodic oscillations in accreting X-ray pulsars

Hemanth Manikantan, Biswajit Paul, Rahul Sharma +2

We present the results from an investigation of the energy dependence of Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) exhibited by accreting X-ray pulsars using data from archival \textit{XM…

Flares during Eclipses of High Mass X-ray Binary Systems Vela X-1, 4U 1700-37, and LMC X-4

Ketan Rikame, Biswajit Paul, Rahul Sharma +2

In eclipsing X-ray binary systems, the direct X-ray emission is blocked by the companion star during the eclipse. We observe only reprocessed emission that contains clues about the…

Detection of a cyclotron line in the Be X-ray pulsar IGR J060742205

Kinjal Roy, Rahul Sharma, Hemanth Manikantan +1

IGR J0607.4+2205 is a transient Be X-ray binary discovered two decades ago. IGR J0607.4+2205 underwent an outburst in 2023 during which it was observed twice with \textit{NuSTAR}.…
