Revisiting the dead time effects of Insight-HXMT/ME on timing analysis

Youli Tuo, Xiaobo Li, Ying Tan +7

Dead time is a common instrumental effect of X-ray detectors which would alter the behavior of timing properties of astronomical signals, such as distorting the shape of power dens…

A spectral-timing study of the inner flow geometry in MAXI J1535--571 with -HXMT and NICER

Wei Yu, Qing-Cui Bu, He-Xin Liu +48

We have performed a spectral-timing analysis on the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1535--571 during its 2017 outburst, with the aim of exploring the evolution of the inner accretion…

Quasi-periodic oscillations of the X-ray burst from the magnetar SGR J1935+2154 and associated with the fast radio burst FRB 200428

Xiaobo Li, Mingyu Ge, Lin Lin +92

The origin(s) and mechanism(s) of fast radio bursts (FRBs), which are short radio pulses from cosmological distances, have remained a major puzzle since their discovery. We report…

In-orbit timing calibration of the Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope

Youli Tuo, Xiaobo Li, Mingyu Ge +24

We describe the timing system and the timing calibration results of the three payloads on-board the Insight-Hard X-ray Modulation Telescope (Insight-HXMT). These three payloads are…

Insight-HXMT observations of jet-like corona in a black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1820+070

Bei You, Yuoli Tuo, Chengzhe Li +123

A black hole X-ray binary produces hard X-ray radiation from its corona and disk when the accreting matter heats up. During an outburst, the disk and corona co-evolves with each ot…

Discovery of oscillations above 200 keV in a black hole X-ray binary with Insight-HXMT

Xiang Ma, Lian Tao, Shuang-Nan Zhang +119

Low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (LFQPOs) are commonly found in black hole X-ray binaries, and their origin is still under debate. The properties of LFQPOs at high energie…

A unique X-ray unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxy IRAS F01475-0740

Xing-Xing Huang, Jun-Xian Wang, Ying Tan +2

X-ray unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxies appear to have X-ray absorption column densities that are too low (NH < 10^22 cm-2) to explain the absence of broad emission lines in their opti…
