Spectral analysis of IGR J01572-7259 during its 2016 outburst
N. La Palombara, P. Esposito, S. Mereghetti +3
We report on the results of the observation of IGR J01572-7259 during its most recent outburst in 2016 May, the first since 2008. The source reached a flux $f \sim 10^…
Behind the dust curtain: the spectacular case of GRB 160623A
F. Pintore, A. Tiengo, S. Mereghetti +6
We report on the X-ray dust-scattering features observed around the afterglow of the gamma ray burst GRB 160623A. With an XMM-Newton observation carried out ~2 days after the burst…
Updating the orbital ephemeris of the dipping source XB 1254-690 and the distance to the source
A. F. Gambino, R. Iaria, T. Di Salvo +5
XB 1254-690 is a dipping low mass X-ray binary system hosting a neutron star and showing type I X-ray bursts. We aim at obtaining more accurate orbital ephemeris and at constrainin…
On the timing properties of SAX J1808.4-3658 during its 2015 outburst
A. Sanna, T. Di Salvo, L. Burderi +7
We present a timing analysis of the 2015 outburst of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658, using non-simultaneous XMM-Newton and NuStar observations. We estimate…
Study of the accretion torque during the 2014 outburst of the X-ray pulsar GRO J1744-28
A. Sanna, A. Riggio, L. Burderi +9
We present the spectral and timing analysis of the X-ray pulsar GRO J1744-28 during its 2014 outburst using data collected with the X-ray satellites Swift, INTEGRAL, Chandra, and X…
The effect of X-ray dust-scattering on a bright burst from the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408
Fabio Pintore, Sandro Mereghetti, Andrea Tiengo +3
A bright burst, followed by an X-ray tail lasting ~10 ks, was detected during an XMM-Newton observation of the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408 carried out on 2009 February 3. The burst, al…
