A standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant using GW170817 and the latest observations of the electromagnetic counterpart afterglow

A. Palmese, R. Kaur, A. Hajela +3

We present a new constraint on the Hubble constant using the latest measurements of the electromagnetic counterpart to the gravitational wave (GW) event GW170817. We use the…

Near-infrared counterparts of three transient very faint neutron star X-ray binaries

A. W. Shaw, C. O. Heinke, N. Degenaar +3

We present near-infrared (NIR) imaging observations of three transient neutron star X-ray binaries, SAX J1753.5-2349, SAX J1806.5-2215 and AX J1754.2-2754. All three sources are me…

Revealing a new symbiotic X-ray binary with Gemini NIFS

Arash Bahramian, Jeanette C. Gladstone, Craig O. Heinke +3

We use K-band spectroscopy of the counterpart to the rapidly variable X-ray transient XMMU J174445.5-295044 to identify it as a new symbiotic X-ray binary. XMMU J174445.5-295044 ha…

A search for near-infrared counterparts of two faint neutron star X-ray transients : XMMU J174716.1-281048 and SAX J1806.5-2215

Ramanpreet Kaur, Rudy Wijnands, Atish Kamble +4

We present our near-infrared (NIR) imaging observations of two neutron star low mass X-ray binaries XMMU J174716.1-281048 and SAX J1806.5-2215 obtained using the PANIC instrument o…

VLT/X-shooter spectroscopy of the candidate black-hole X-ray binary MAXI J1659-152 in outburst

Ramanpreet Kaur, Lex Kaper, Lucas E. Ellerbroek +15

We present the optical to near-infrared spectrum of MAXI J1659-152, during the onset of its 2010 X-ray outburst. The spectrum was obtained with X-shooter on the ESO - Very Large Te…

Swift detection of an intermediately long X-ray burst from the very faint X-ray binary XMMU J174716.1-281048

N. Degenaar, R. Wijnands, R. Kaur

We report on the Swift detection of a thermonuclear X-ray burst from the very-faint quasi-persistent neutron star X-ray binary XMMU J174716.1-281048, which triggered the satellite'…
