An X-ray and optical study of the outbursting behaviour of the SMC Be X-ray binary SXP 91.1

Itumeleng Monageng, Malcolm Coe, Jamie Kennea +6

In this paper we report on the optical and X-ray behaviour of the Be X-ray binary, SXP 91.1, during a recent type I outburst. We monitored the outburst using the Neil Gehrels Swift…

The SMC X-ray binary SXP4.78 : a new Type II outburst and the identification and study of the optical counterpart

Itumeleng Monageng, Malcolm Coe, Lee Townsend +6

SXP4.78 was originally discovered in 2000 as a pulsar in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) but it was not spatially located at that time. A…

The masses of the neutron and donor star in the high mass X-ray binary IGR J18027-2016

A. B. Mason, A. J. Norton, J. S. Clark +2

We report near-infrared observations of the supergiant donor to the eclipsing high mass X-ray binary pulsar IGR J18027-2016. We aim to determine its spectral type and measure its r…

High Mass X-ray Binaries in the NIR : Orbital solutions of two highly obscured systems

A. B. Mason, A. J. Norton, J. S. Clark +2

The maximum mass of a neutron star (NS) is poorly defined. Theoretical attempts to define this mass have thus far been unsuccessful. Observational results currently provide the onl…

The eclipsing, double-lined, Of supergiant binary Cyg OB2-B17

V. E. Stroud, J. S. Clark, I. Negueruela +3

Massive, eclipsing, double-lined, spectroscopic binaries are not common but are necessary to understand the evolution of massive stars as they are the only direct way to determine…

Orbital, precessional and flaring variability of Cygnus X-1

C. Brocksopp, R. P. Fender, V. Larianiov +5

We present the results of a 2.5-year multiwavelength monitoring programme of Cygnus X-1, making use of hard and soft X-ray data, optical spectroscopy, UBVJHK photometry and radio d…
