Optical/infrared observations of the X-ray burster KS1731-260 in quiescence

C. Zurita, E. Kuulkers, R. M. Bandyopadhyay +5

We performed an optical/infrared study of the counterpart of the low-mass X-ray binary KS1731-260 to test its identification and obtain information about the donor. Optical and inf…

Non-Detection of Gravitationally Redshifted Absorption Lines in the X-ray Burst Spectra of GS 1826-24

Albert K. H. Kong, Jon M. Miller, Mariano Mendez +6

During a 200 ks observation with the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer, we detected 16 type-I X-ray bursts from GS 1826-24. We combined the burst spectra in an attempt to…
