X-rays breaking out of pre-explosion ejecta mark a supernova's first light
Weimin Yuan, Qiu-Ju Huang, Jin-Ping Zhu +130
Massive stars die as core-collapse supernovae, whose optical light emerges days after the implosion. Theory predicts that the initial collapse-driven shock, upon breaking through t…
DIffuse X-ray Explorer (DIXE): Sky Survey Strategy and Collimator Response Demodulation
Jiejia Liu, Chunyang Jiang, Junjie Mao +3
DIffuse X-ray Explorer (DIXE) is a proposed high-resolution X-ray spectroscopic surveyor aimed at studying large structures of hot gas in the Milky Way. Its payload is designed to…
Strong Aperiodic X-ray Variability and Quasi-Periodic Oscillation in X-ray Nova XTE J1550-564
Wei Cui, S. N. Zhang, Wan Chen +1
We report the discovery of strong aperiodic X-ray variability and quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the X-ray light curves of a new X-ray Nova, XTE J1550-564, and the evolution o…
RXTE Observations of Cygnus X-3
M. L. McCollough, C. R. Robinson, S. N. Zhang +12
In the period between May 1997 and August 1997 a series of pointed RXTE observations were made of Cyg X-3. During this period Cyg X-3 made a transition from a quiescent radio state…
Evolution of AQL X-1 During the Rising Phase of its 1998 Outburst
Wei Cui, Didier Barret, S. N. Zhang +3
We present results from 16 snapshots of Aql X-1 with RXTE during the rising phase of its recent outburst. The observations were carried out at a typical rate of once or twice per d…
Rxte Observations of a New X-Ray Transient: GRS 1737-31
Wei Cui, W. A. Heindl, J. H. Swank +4
We present the results from RXTE observations of a new X-ray transient, GRS 1737-31, near the Galactic center during an outburst. Over a span of two weeks, the source was seen to v…
