Fingerprints of thermal Comptonization in accreting neutron stars. Plasma-vacuum interplay in cyclotron lines and polarisation
E. Sokolova-Lapa, D. K. Maniadakis, J. J. R. Stierhof +11
X-ray emission from accreting, strongly magnetised neutron stars and its pulse-phase variability probe their magnetic-field geometry, spin orientation, and emission processes. Whet…
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…
Energy-resolved pulse profiles of Vela X-1: cross-calibrating XMM-Newton and NuSTAR to trace spectral features
Dimitrios K. Maniadakis, Antonino D'Aì, Camille M. Diez +12
Pulse profiles probe the emission geometry of accreting X-ray pulsars, but their observed shapes may depend on instrumental response and observational setup. The pulsed fraction sp…
The elusive cyclotron line in 4U 1901+03: hidden, yet present
Elena Ambrosi, Antonino D' Aì, Giancarlo Cusumano +8
Context. Cyclotron resonant scattering features (CRSFs) in accreting X-ray pulsars are often difficult to detect, especially when shallow or variable. Recent studies have shown tha…
