Pulse profile modelling of the accretion-powered millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 using NICER data from its 2019 and 2022 outbursts

Bas Dorsman, Tuomo Salmi, Anna L. Watts +5

Pulse profile modelling is a relativistic ray-tracing technique that has provided constraints on parameters, with a focus on mass and radius, of five rotation-powered millisecond p…

Equation-of-state-informed pulse profile modeling

Mariska Hoogkamer, Nathan Rutherford, Daniela Huppenkothen +9

NICER has enabled mass-radius inferences for pulsars using pulse profile modeling (PPM), providing constraints on the equation of state (EOS) of cold, dense matter. To date, PPM an…

Impact of Accretion Assumptions on Pulse Profile Modelling of Superburst Oscillations in 4U 1636-536

Yves Kini, Anna L. Watts, Tuomo Salmi +7

Modelling the coherent pulsations observed during thermonuclear bursts offers a valuable method to probe the poorly understood equation of state of dense and cold matter. Here we a…

Scaling relations for the uncertainty in neutron star radius inferred from pulse profile modelling: the effect of spin rate

Erik Bootsma, Serena Vinciguerra, Anna L. Watts +2

Pulse profile modelling using X-ray data from NICER permits the inference of mass and radius for rotation-powered millisecond pulsars. This in turn constrains the equation of state…

Cross-Comparison of Sampling Algorithms for Pulse Profile Modeling of PSR J0740+6620

Mariska Hoogkamer, Yves Kini, Tuomo Salmi +2

In the last few years, NICER data has enabled mass and radius inferences for various pulsars, and thus shed light on the equation of state for dense nuclear matter. This is achieve…

Modelling polarized X-ray pulses from accreting millisecond pulsars with X-PSI, using different hot spot locations and shapes

Tuomo Salmi, Bas Dorsman, Anna L. Watts +7

We present an analysis of polarized X-ray pulses based on simulated data for accreting millisecond pulsars (AMPs). We used the open-source X-ray Pulse Simulation and Inference code…
