EXTraS discovery of two pulsators in the direction of the LMC: a Be/X-ray binary pulsar in the LMC and a candidate double-degenerate polar in the foreground
F. Haberl, G. L. Israel, G. A. Rodriguez Castillo +10
The EXTraS project to explore the X-ray Transient and variable Sky searches for coherent signals in the X-ray archival data of XMM-Newton. XMM-Newton performed more than 400 pointe…
An accreting pulsar with extreme properties drives an ultraluminous x-ray source in NGC 5907
G. L. Israel, A. Belfiore, L. Stella +20
Ultraluminous x-ray sources (ULXs) in nearby galaxies shine brighter than any X-ray source in our Galaxy. ULXs are usually modeled as stellar-mass black holes (BHs) accreting at ve…
Discovery of a 0.42-s pulsar in the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 7793 P13
G. L. Israel, A. Papitto, P. Esposito +11
NGC 7793 P13 is a variable (luminosity range ~100) ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) proposed to host a stellar-mass black hole of less than 15 M in a binary system with o…
The discovery, monitoring and environment of SGR J1935+2154
G. L. Israel, P. Esposito, N. Rea +9
We report on the discovery of a new member of the magnetar class, SGR J1935+2154, and on its timing and spectral properties measured by an extensive observational campaign carried…
