Exploring the tilted accretion disc of AQ Men with TESS
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Simone Scaringi, James M. C. Court +8
AQ Men is a nova-like variable which is presumed to have a tilted, precessing accretion disc. Grazing eclipses in this system have been speculated to be useful in exploring the geo…
Gravitational waves from rapidly rotating neutron stars
Brynmor Haskell, Nils Andersson, Caroline D`Angelo +8
Rapidly rotating neutron stars in Low Mass X-ray Binaries have been proposed as an interesting source of gravitational waves. In this chapter we present estimates of the gravitatio…
Discovery, Progenitor & Early Evolution of a Stripped Envelope Supernova iPTF13bvn
Yi Cao, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Iair Arcavi +24
The intermediate Palomar Transient Factory reports our discovery of a young supernova, iPTF13bvn, in the nearby galaxy, NGC5806 (22.5Mpc). Our spectral sequence in the optical and…
Constraining the physics of the r-mode instability in neutron stars with X-ray and UV observations
Brynmor Haskell, Nathalie Degenaar, Wynn C. G. Ho
Rapidly rotating Neutron Stars in Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) may be an interesting source of Gravitational Waves (GWs). In particular, several modes of stellar oscillation may…
The Observed Spin Distributions of Millisecond Radio and X-ray Pulsars
J. W. T. Hessels
We consider the currently observed spin distributions of various types of neutron stars, including isolated and binary radio millisecond pulsars in the Galactic plane and globular…
