Pulse Profiles of Accreting Neutron Stars from GRMHD Simulations
Pushpita Das, Tuomo Salmi, Jordy Davelaar +2
The pulsed X-ray emission from the neutron star surface acts as a window to study the state of matter in the neutron star interior. For accreting millisecond pulsars, the surface X…
A NICER View of PSR J12311411: A Complex Case
Tuomo Salmi, Julia S. Deneva, Paul S. Ray +16
Recent constraints on neutron star mass and radius have advanced our understanding of the equation of state (EOS) of cold dense matter. Some of them have been obtained by modeling…
Parameter constraints for accreting millisecond pulsars with synthetic NICER data
Bas Dorsman, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +10
Pulse profile modelling (PPM) is a technique for inferring mass, radius and hotspot properties of millisecond pulsars. PPM is now regularly used for analysis of rotation-powered mi…
Discovery of Polarized X-Ray Emission from the Accreting Millisecond Pulsar SRGA J144459.2-604207
Alessandro Papitto, Alessandro Di Marco, Juri Poutanen +22
We report on the discovery of polarized X-ray emission from an accreting millisecond pulsar. During a 10-day-long coverage of the February 2024 outburst of SRGA J144459.2-604207, t…
A NICER View of the Nearest and Brightest Millisecond Pulsar: PSR J0437$\unicode{x2013}$4715
Devarshi Choudhury, Tuomo Salmi, Serena Vinciguerra +17
We report Bayesian inference of the mass, radius and hot X-ray emitting region properties - using data from the Neutron Star Interior Composition ExploreR (NICER) - for the brighte…
Constraining the dense matter equation of state with new NICER mass-radius measurements and new chiral effective field theory inputs
Nathan Rutherford, Melissa Mendes, Isak Svensson +12
Pulse profile modeling of X-ray data from NICER is now enabling precision inference of neutron star mass and radius. Combined with nuclear physics constraints from chiral effective…
The Radius of the High-mass Pulsar PSR J0740+6620 with 3.6 yr of NICER Data
Tuomo Salmi, Devarshi Choudhury, Yves Kini +14
We report an updated analysis of the radius, mass, and heated surface regions of the massive pulsar PSR J0740+6620 using Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) data fro…
Exploring Waveform Variations among Neutron Star Ray-tracing Codes for Complex Emission Geometries
Devarshi Choudhury, Anna L. Watts, Alexander J. Dittmann +8
Pulse Profile Modeling (PPM), the technique used to infer mass, radius and geometric parameters for rotation-powered millisecond pulsars using data from the Neutron Star Interior C…
Constraining the Properties of the Thermonuclear Burst Oscillation Source XTE J1814-338 Through Pulse Profile Modelling
Yves Kini, Tuomo Salmi, Serena Vinciguerra +8
Pulse profile modelling (PPM) is a comprehensive relativistic ray-tracing technique employed to determine the properties of neutron stars. In this study, we apply this technique to…
Discovery of a strong rotation of the X-ray polarization angle in the galactic burster GX 13+1
Anna Bobrikova, Sofia V. Forsblom, Alessandro Di Marco +106
Weakly magnetized neutron stars in X-ray binaries show complex phenomenology with several spectral components that can be associated with the accretion disk, boundary and/or spread…
