Flux variability of the "10 keV feature" of 4U 0115+63

Katrin Berger, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Ralf Ballhausen +14

X-ray spectra of accretion-powered X-ray pulsars can often be described using a power-law continuum with a high-energy cutoff, which might be further modified by additional spectra…

Unveiling the origin of the optical and UV emission during the 2017 giant outburst of the Galactic ULX pulsar Swift J0243.6+6124 (Corrigendum)

J. Alfonso-Garzón, J. van den Eijnden, N. P. M. Kuin +8

An error was detected in the code of one of the components considered to model the optical/UV emission of the Galactic ULX pulsar Swift J0243.6+6124 during its 2017 giant outburst.…

Wobbling around the clock: magnetically-driven quasi-periodic oscillations in pulsating ultraluminous X-ray sources

M. Veresvarska, M. Imbrogno, R. Amato +8

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are X-ray binary systems containing an accreting neutron star (NS) or black hole emitting at luminosities above the Eddington limit of a $10M_{\o…

A New Broadband Spectral State in the Ultraluminous X-ray Source Holmberg IX X-1

D. J. Walton, M. Bachetti, P. Kosec +12

We present a series of five new broadband X-ray observations of the ultraluminous X-ray source Holmberg IX X-1, performed by - and in coordination. The first…

Orbital decay in M82 X-2

Matteo Bachetti, Marianne Heida, Thomas Maccarone +21

M82 X-2 is the first pulsating ultraluminous X-ray source (PULX) discovered. The luminosity of these extreme pulsars, if isotropic, implies an extreme mass transfer rate. An altern…

The clumpy absorber in the high-mass X-ray binary Vela X-1

V. Grinberg, N. Hell, I. El Mellah +13

Bright and eclipsing, the high-mass X-ray binary Vela X-1 offers a unique opportunity to study accretion onto a neutron star from clumpy winds of O/B stars and to disentangle the c…

Cyclotron resonant scattering feature simulations. I. Thermally averaged cyclotron scattering cross sections, mean free photon-path tables, and electron momentum sampling

F. -W. Schwarm, G. Schoenherr, S. Falkner +11

Electron cyclotron resonant scattering features (CRSFs) are observed as absorption-like lines in the spectra of X-ray pulsars. A significant fraction of the computing time for Mont…
