A two-component Comptonisation model for the type-B QPO in MAXI J1348-630

Federico García, Mariano Méndez, Konstantinos Karpouzas +3

Spectral-timing analysis of the fast variability observed in X-rays is a powerful tool to study the physical and geometrical properties of the accretion/ejection flows in black-hol…

The study of multi-peaked type-I X-ray bursts in the neutron-star low mass X-ray binary 4U 1636536 with RXTE

Chen Li, Guobao Zhang, Mariano Méndez +2

We have found and analysed 16 multi-peaked type-I bursts from the neutron-star low mass X-ray binary 4U 163653 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). One of the bursts is…

High-frequency variability in neutron-star low-mass X-ray binaries

Mariano Méndez, Tomaso M. Belloni

Binary systems with a neutron-star primary accreting from a companion star display variability in the X-ray band on time scales ranging from years to milliseconds. With frequencies…

A NICER look at the state transitions of the black hole candidate MAXI J1535-571 during its reflares

V. A. Cúneo, K. Alabarta, L. Zhang +18

The black hole candidate and X-ray binary MAXI J1535-571 was discovered in September 2017. During the decay of its discovery outburst, and before returning to quiescence, the sourc…

A Systematic Analysis of the Phase Lags Associated with the Type-C Quasi-periodic Oscillation in GRS 1915+105

Liang Zhang, Mariano Méndez, Diego Altamirano +9

We present a systematic analysis of the phase lags associated with the type-C QPOs in GRS 1915+105 using RXTE data. Our sample comprises of 620 RXTE observations with type-C QPOs r…
