Discovery of a quasi-periodic oscillation non-harmonically related to the Type-C QPO in the hard intermedidate state of MAXI J1820+070
Pei Jin, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +2
We present a detailed timing analysis of the transition from the hard-intermediate state (HIMS) to the soft-intermediate state (SIMS) in MAXI J1820+070 using NICER observations. Th…
An atypical X-ray variability component in the black hole candidate AT2019wey
Pengcheng Yang, Mariano Méndez, Sandeep K. Rout +5
Recent studies have revealed a notable timing feature in several black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) during the soft-to-hard transition at the outburst decay. Within a narrow frequen…
A NICER view of the corona through time-dependent Comptonization of the quasi-periodic oscillations in nine black-hole X-ray binaries
Yuexin Zhang, Mariano Méndez, James F. Steiner +12
We present a systematic study of the evolution of the corona geometry in nine black hole X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) using archival data from NICER. We identify 171 observations exhibi…
Exotic optical variability in the black hole X-ray binary IGR J17091-3624
Payaswini Saikia, David M. Russell, D. M. Bramich +9
IGR J17091-3624 is a distinctive black hole X-ray binary exhibiting exotic variability, including complex "heartbeat" oscillations in its X-ray light curves, similar to those obser…
Black-hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613 shows simultaneous Type-B and Type-C quasi-periodic oscillations across the hard-intermediate and soft-intermediate states
Pei Jin, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +2
We present a timing analysis of \textit{Insight}-HXMT observations of the black-hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613 across a bright soft X-ray flare on 2023 September 19 (MJD 60…
Rapid jet production and suppression during fast state transitions in the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1348630
Francesco Carotenuto, Liang Zhang, Diego Altamirano +3
Black hole X-ray binaries (BH XRBs) launch powerful relativistic jets during bright outburst phases. The properties of these outflows change dramatically between different spectral…
Evidence for enhanced mass transfer in the disc preceding the transition to the soft state in MAXI J1820+070
Pengcheng Yang, Guobao Zhang, David M. Russell +6
We investigate the 2018-2019 main outburst and the subsequent mini-outbursts of the black hole low-mass X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070 using optical/ultraviolet data from the Las Cumb…
Fast Transitions of X-ray Variability in the Neutron Star Low Mass X-ray Binary Cygnus X-2
Liang Zhang, Mariano Méndez, Hua Feng +12
We present a spectral-timing analysis of two NICER observations of the weakly magnetized neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2. During these observations, we detect a rapid…
Comprehensive Radio Monitoring of the Black Hole X-ray Binary Swift J1727.81613 during its 20232024 Outburst
Andrew K. Hughes, Francesco Carotenuto, Thomas D. Russell +39
This work presents comprehensive multi-frequency radio monitoring of the black hole low-mass X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613, which underwent its first recorded outburst after it…
The peculiar hard state behaviour of the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613
A. K. Hughes, F. Carotenuto, T. D. Russell +37
Tracking the correlation between radio and X-ray luminosities during black hole X-ray binary outbursts is a key diagnostic of the coupling between accretion inflows (traced by X-ra…
Detection of a Type-C QPO during the soft-to-hard transition in Swift J1727.8-1613
Maïmouna Brigitte, Noel Castro Segura, Federico García +6
Timing analysis of accreting systems is key to probe the structure and dynamics around compact objects. In Black-Hole Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (BH LMXBs), the compact object accrete…
Timing analysis of the black-hole candidate Swift J1727.8-1613: detection of a dip-like feature in the high-energy cross spectrum
Pei Jin, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +3
We present a timing analysis of observations with the Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope of the black hole X-ray transient Swift J1727.8-1613 during its 2023 outburst. We detect, for…
Sub-second optical/near-infrared quasi-periodic oscillations from the black hole X-ray transient Swift J1727.8-1613
