Optical pulsations from a transitional millisecond pulsar
F. Ambrosino, A. Papitto, L. Stella +8
Weakly magnetic, millisecond spinning neutron stars attain their very fast rotation through a 1E8-1E9 yr long phase during which they undergo disk-accretion of matter from a low ma…
An XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL view on the hard state of EXO 1745-248 during its 2015 outburst
M. Matranga, A. Papitto, T. Di Salvo +10
CONTEXT - Transient low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) often show outbursts lasting typically a few-weeks and characterized by a high X-ray luminosity (…
A possible solution of the puzzling variation of the orbital period of MXB 1659-298
R. Iaria, A. F. Gambino, T. Di Salvo +6
MXB 1659-298 is a transient neutron star Low-Mass X-ray binary system that shows eclipses with a periodicity of 7.1 hr. The source went to outburst in August 2015 after 14 years of…
The puzzling case of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934: flaring optical emission during quiescence
M. C. Baglio, S. Campana, P. D'Avanzo +6
We present an optical (gri) study during quiescence of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934 performed with the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) in August 2014…
A re-analysis of the NuSTAR and XMM-Newton broad-band spectrum of Ser~X-1
M. Matranga, T. Di Salvo, R. Iaria +4
Context: Ser X-1 is a well studied LMXB which clearly shows a broad iron line. Recently, Miller et al. (2103) have presented broad-band, high quality NuSTAR data of SerX-1.Using re…
