The comptonizing medium of the black-hole X-ray binary MAXI~J1535571 through type-C quasi-periodic oscillations

Divya Rawat, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +7

We present a detailed spectral and temporal analysis of the black-hole candidate MAXI~J1535571 using NICER observations in September and October 2017. We focus specifically on o…

Dual-Corona Comptonization model for the Type-B Quasi-Periodic Oscillations in GX 339-4

Valentina Peirano, Mariano Méndez, Federico García +1

Characterising the fast variability in black-hole low-mass X-ray binaries (BHXBs) can help us understand the geometrical and physical nature of the innermost regions of these sourc…

vKompth: A variable Comptonisation model for low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations in black-hole X-ray binaries

Candela Bellavita, Federico García, Mariano Méndez +1

Low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) show strong variability over a broad range of time scales. The analysis of this variability, in particular of the quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO),…

Phase lags of quasi-periodic oscillations across source states in the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53

Marcio G B de Avellar, Mariano Méndez, Diego Altamirano +2

While there are many dynamical mechanisms and models that try to explain the origin and phenomenology of the quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) seen in the X-ray light curves of lo…

The kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations during the Z and atoll phases of the unique transient XTE J1701--462

A. Sanna, M. Mendez, D. Altamirano +6

We analysed 866 observations of the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary XTE J1701-462 during its 2006-2007 outburst. XTE J1701-462 is the only example so far of a source that during…
