Ad Astra White Paper: A Pitch for the Next 25 Years of NASA's Physics of the Cosmos Program
Eric Burns, Ivan Agullo, Igor Andreoni +7
Astrophysical observations of our universe have been key to our understanding of how the universe works. Shortly after the turn of the millennium, the National Research Council del…
Comparing the Space Densities of Millisecond-Spin Magnetars and Fast X-Ray Transients
Sumedha Biswas, Peter G. Jonker, M. Coleman Miller +2
Fast X-ray transients (FXTs) are bright X-ray flashes with durations of minutes to hours, peak isotropic luminosities of L_X,peak ~ 10^42-10^47 erg/s, and total isotropic energies…
Observatory Science with eXTP
Ping Zhou, Jirong Mao, Liang Zhang +97
Scheduled for launch in 2030, the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarization (eXTP) telescope is a Chinese space-based mission aimed at studying extreme conditions and phenomena in ast…
Dense Matter in Neutron Stars with eXTP
Ang Li, Anna L. Watts, Guobao Zhang +82
In this White Paper, we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission to constrain the equation of state of dense matter in neutron stars, explo…
Multidisciplinary Science in the Multimessenger Era
Eric Burns, Christopher L. Fryer, Ivan Agullo +82
Astrophysical observations of the cosmos allow us to probe extreme physics and answer foundational questions on our universe. Modern astronomy is increasingly operating under a hol…
Exploring Waveform Variations among Neutron Star Ray-tracing Codes for Complex Emission Geometries
Devarshi Choudhury, Anna L. Watts, Alexander J. Dittmann +8
Pulse Profile Modeling (PPM), the technique used to infer mass, radius and geometric parameters for rotation-powered millisecond pulsars using data from the Neutron Star Interior C…
The fast X-ray transient EP240315a: a z ~ 5 gamma-ray burst in a Lyman continuum leaking galaxy
Andrew J. Levan, Peter G. Jonker, Andrea Saccardi +73
The nature of the minute-to-hour long Fast X-ray Transients (FXTs) localised by telescopes such as Chandra, Swift, and XMM-Newton remains mysterious, with numerous models suggested…
LOFT: the Large Observatory For X-ray Timing
M. Feroci, J. W. den Herder, E. Bozzo +245
The LOFT mission concept is one of four candidates selected by ESA for the M3 launch opportunity as Medium Size missions of the Cosmic Vision programme. The launch window is curren…
Relativistic Lines and Reflection from the Inner Accretion Disks Around Neutron Stars
E. M. Cackett, J. M. Miller, D. R. Ballantyne +6
A number of neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries have recently been discovered to show broad, asymmetric Fe K emission lines in their X-ray spectra. These lines are generally thoug…
Relativistic iron emission lines in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries as probes of neutron star radii
Edward M. Cackett, Jon M. Miller, Sudip Bhattacharyya +6
Using Suzaku observations of three neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (Ser X-1, 4U 1820-30 and GX 349+2) we have found broad, asymmetric, relativistic Fe K emission lines in all…
