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…
X-ray and UV correlation in the quiescent emission of Cen X-4, evidence of accretion and reprocessing
F. Bernardini, E. M. Cackett, E. F. Brown +5
We conducted the first long-term (60 days), multiwavelength (optical, ultraviolet, and X-ray) simultaneous monitoring of Cen X-4 with daily Swift observations, with the goal of und…
A change in the quiescent X-ray spectrum of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary MXB 1659-29
E. M. Cackett, E. F. Brown, A. Cumming +5
The quasi-persistent neutron star low-mass X-ray binary MXB 1659-29 went into quiescence in 2001, and we have followed its quiescent X-ray evolution since. Observations over the fi…
Daily, multiwavelength Swift monitoring of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Cen X-4: evidence for accretion and reprocessing during quiescence
F. Bernardini, E. M. Cackett, E. F. Brown +5
We conducted the first long-term (60 days), multiwavelength (optical, ultraviolet, and X-ray) simultaneous monitoring of Cen X-4 with daily Swift observations from June to August 2…
Continued Neutron Star Crust Cooling of the 11 Hz X-Ray Pulsar in Terzan 5: A Challenge to Heating and Cooling Models?
N. Degenaar, R. Wijnands, E. F. Brown +8
The transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and 11 Hz X-ray pulsar IGR J17480-2446 in the globular cluster Terzan 5 exhibited an 11-week accretion outburst in 2010. Chandra ob…
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…
