Pulse profiles of accreting neutron stars - A review of analysis methods, observations, and theoretical models
Katja Pottschmidt, Peter Kretschmar, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa +25
X-ray pulsars are highly magnetized ( G) neutron stars accreting from a donor star. Their characteristic X-ray emission arises from accreted material decelerated fro…

AGN X-ray Reflection Spectroscopy with ML MYTORUS:Neural Posterior Estimation with Training on Observation-Driven Parameter Grids
Ingrid Vanessa Daza-Perilla, Panayiotis Tzanavaris, V. Madurga-Favieres +3
X-ray spectroscopy of active galactic nuclei (AGN) reveals key information about circumnuclear geometry. Many AGN show a narrow Fe K-alpha line at 6.4 keV and associated Compton-sc…

Pulse profile variations in the accreting X-ray pulsar Vela X-1
V. Madurga-Favieres, A. Martin-Carrillo, C. M. Diez +7
Vela X-1 is a well-studied accreting X-ray pulsar, with a distinctive pulse profile that has been found to be very similar in different observations spread out over decades. On the…
