Constraining the nature of the accreting binary in CXOGBS J174623.5-310550
M. A. P. Torres, S. Repetto, T. Wevers +12
We report optical and infrared observations of the X-ray source CXOGBS J174623.5-310550. This Galactic object was identified as a potential quiescent low-mass X-ray binary accretin…
Candidate Hα emission and absorption line sources in the Galactic Bulge Survey
T. Wevers, P. G. Jonker, G. Nelemans +7
We present a catalogue of candidate Hα emission and absorption line sources and blue objects in the Galactic Bulge Survey (GBS) region. We use a point source catalogue of the GBS f…
Furiously Fast and Red: Sub-second Optical Flaring in V404 Cyg during the 2015 Outburst Peak
P. Gandhi, S. P. Littlefair, L. K. Hardy +25
We present observations of rapid (sub-second) optical flux variability in V404 Cyg during its 2015 June outburst. Simultaneous three-band observations with the ULTRACAM fast imager…
As above, so below: exploiting mass scaling in black hole accretion to break degeneracies in spectral interpretation
Sera Markoff, Michael Nowak, Elena Gallo +6
Over the last decade, the evidence is mounting that several aspects of black hole accretion physics proceed in a mass-invariant way. One of the best examples of this scaling is the…
A detection of the donor star of Aquila X-1 during its 2004 outburst?
R. Cornelisse, J. Casares, D. Steeghs +4
Phase-resolved high resolution optical spectroscopy has revealed narrow N III and He II emission lines from the soft X-ray transient Aquila X-1 during its 2004 outburst that move a…
Multiwavelength Observations of EXO 0748-676 - I. Reprocessing of X-ray Bursts
R. I. Hynes, K. Horne, K. O'Brien +5
We present the first high time-resolution simultaneous X-ray, ultraviolet, and optical observations of X-ray bursts in UY Vol, the optical counterpart of the low mass X-ray binary…
