GRS 1739-278 observed at very low luminosity with XMM-Newton and NuSTAR

F. Fuerst, J. A. Tomsick, K. Yamaoka +19

We present a detailed spectral analysis of XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations of the accreting transient black hole GRS 1739-278 during a very faint low hard state at ~0.02% of the…

The accretion environment in Vela X-1 during a flaring period using XMM-Newton

Silvia Martínez-Núñez, José Miguel Torrejón, Matthias Kühnel +8

We present analysis of 100 ks contiguous XMM-Newton data of the prototypical wind accretor Vela X-1. The observation covered eclipse egress between orbital phases 0.134 and 0.265,…

The relative and absolute timing accuracy of the EPIC-pn camera on XMM-Newton, from X-ray pulsations of the Crab and other pulsars

A. Martin-Carrillo, M. G. F. Kirsch, I. Caballero +13

Reliable timing calibration is essential for the accurate comparison of XMM-Newton light curves with those from other observatories, to ultimately use them to derive precise physic…

Status of the XMM-Newton cross-calibration with SASv6.5.0

M. Stuhlinger, B. Altieri, D. Baskill +16

Further achievements of the XMM-Newton cross-calibration - XMM internal as well as with other X-ray missions - are presented. We explain the major changes in the new version SASv6.…
