Expanded atmospheres and winds in Type I X-ray bursts from accreting neutron stars
Simon Guichandut, Andrew Cumming, Maurizio Falanga +2
We calculate steady-state models of radiation-driven super-Eddington winds and static expanded envelopes of neutron stars caused by high luminosities in type I X-ray bursts. We use…
The link between coherent burst oscillations, burst spectral evolution and accretion state in 4U 1728-34
Guobao Zhang, Mariano Mendez, Michael Zamfir +1
Coherent oscillations and the evolution of the X-ray spectrum during thermonuclear X-ray bursts in accreting neutron-star X-ray binaries have been studied intensively but separatel…
The Thermal Stability of Helium Burning on Accreting Neutron Stars
Michael Zamfir, Andrew Cumming, Caroline Niquette
Thermonuclear burning on the surface of accreting neutron stars is observed to stabilize at accretion rates almost an order of magnitude lower than theoretical models predict. One…
Constraints on neutron star mass and radius in GS 1826-24 from sub-Eddington X-ray bursts
Michael Zamfir, Andrew Cumming, Duncan K. Galloway
We investigate the constraints on neutron star mass and radius in GS 1826-24 from models of lightcurves and spectral evolution of type I X-ray bursts. This source shows remarkable…
