Neutron star cooling and the rp process in thermonuclear X-ray bursts
J. J. M. in 't Zand, M. E. B. Visser, D. K. Galloway +5
When the upper layer of an accreting neutron star experiences a thermonuclear runaway of helium and hydrogen, it exhibits an X-ray burst of a few keV with a cool-down phase of typi…
Swift observations of V404 Cyg during the 2015 outburst: X-ray outflows from super-Eddington accretion
S. E. Motta, J. J. E. Kajava, C. Sánchez-Fernández +11
The black-hole binary V404 Cyg entered the outburst phase in June 2015 after 26 years of X-ray quiescence, and with its behaviour broke the outburst evolution pattern typical of mo…
Flux decay during thermonuclear X-ray bursts analysed with the dynamic power-law index method
J. Kuuttila, J. J. E. Kajava, J. Nättilä +5
The cooling of type-I X-ray bursts can be used to probe the nuclear burning conditions in neutron star envelopes. The flux decay of the bursts has been traditionally modelled with…
