The effect of rotation on the stability of nuclear burning in accreting neutron stars
L. Keek, N. Langer, J. J. M. in 't Zand
Hydrogen and/or helium accreted by a neutron star from a binary companion may undergo thermonuclear fusion. At different mass accretion rates different burning regimes are discerne…

Long tails on thermonuclear X-ray bursts from neutron stars: a signature of inward heating?
J. J. M. in 't Zand, L. Keek, A. Cumming +3
We report the discovery of one-hour long tails on the few-minutes long X-ray bursts from the `clocked burster' GS 1826-24. We propose that the tails are due to enduring thermal rad…
