Probing supernovae and kicks in post-supernova binaries

Claudia Larsen, Hans C. G. Larsen, Casper C. Pedersen +3

Knowledge of the formation of neutron stars (NSs) in supernova (SN) explosions is of fundamental importance in wide areas of contemporary astrophysics: X-ray binaries, magnetars, r…

Observatory science with eXTP

Jean J. M. in 't Zand, Enrico Bozzo, Jinlu Qu +181

In this White Paper we present the potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission for studies related to Observatory Science targets. These include flaring s…

Pulsar J1411+2551: A Low Mass New Double Neutron Star System

J. G. Martinez, K. Stovall, P. C. C. Freire +7

In this work, we report the discovery and characterization of PSR J1411+2551, a new binary pulsar discovered in the Arecibo 327 MHz Drift Pulsar Survey. Our timing observations of…

The High Time Resolution Universe Pulsar Survey - XIII. PSR J1757-1854, the most accelerated binary pulsar

A. D. Cameron, D. J. Champion, M. Kramer +27

We report the discovery of PSR J17571854, a 21.5-ms pulsar in a highly-eccentric, 4.4-h orbit around a neutron star (NS) companion. PSR J17571854 exhibits some of the most ex…

Common envelope ejection in massive binary stars - Implications for the progenitors of GW150914 and GW151226

M. U. Kruckow, T. M. Tauris, N. Langer +3

The recently detected gravitational wave signals (GW150914 and GW151226) of the merger event of a pair of relatively massive stellar-mass black holes (BHs) calls for an investigati…

Multi-band study of RX J0838-2827 and XMM J083850.4-282759: a new asynchronous magnetic cataclysmic variable and a candidate transitional millisecond pulsar

N. Rea, F. Coti Zelati, P. Esposito +23

In search for the counterpart to the Fermi-LAT source 3FGL J0838.8-2829, we performed a multi-wavelength campaign, in the X-ray band with Swift and XMM-Newton, performed infrared,…
