The ultraluminous X-ray sources NGC 1313 X-1 and X-2: a broadband study with NuSTAR and XMM-Newton

Matteo Bachetti, Vikram Rana, Dominic J. Walton +16

We present the results of NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observations of the two ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULX) NGC 1313 X-1 and X-2. The combined spectral bandpass of the two satellites…

NuSTAR discovery of a luminosity dependent cyclotron line energy in Vela X-1

Felix Fuerst, Katja Pottschmidt, Joern Wilms +13

We present NuSTAR observations of Vela X-1, a persistent, yet highly variable, neutron star high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB). Two observations were taken at similar orbital phases but…

The Reflection Component from Cygnus X-1 in the Soft State Measured by NuSTAR and Suzaku

John A. Tomsick, Michael A. Nowak, Michael Parker +21

The black hole binary Cygnus X-1 was observed in late-2012 with the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) and Suzaku, providing spectral coverage over the ~1-300 keV range…

First Results from NuSTAR Observations of Mkn 421

M. Baloković, M. Ajello, R. D. Blandford +34

Mkn 421 is a nearby active galactic nucleus dominated at all wavelengths by a very broad non-thermal continuum thought to arise from a relativistic jet seen at a small angle to the…

Measurements of Cyclotron Features and Pulse Periods in the High-Mass X-Ray Binaries 4U 1538-522 and 4U 1907+09 with INTEGRAL

Paul Hemphill, Richard Rothschild, Isabel Caballero +4

We present a spectral and timing analysis of INTEGRAL observations of two high mass X-ray binaries, 4U 1538-522 and 4U 1907+09. Our timing measurements for 4U 1538-522 find the pul…

NuSTAR detection of hard X-ray phase lags from the accreting pulsar GS 0834-430

Hiromasa Miyasaka, Matteo Bachetti, Fiona A. Harrison +18

The NuSTAR hard X-ray telescope observed the transient Be/X-ray binary GS 0834-430 during its 2012 outburst - the first active state of this system observed in the past 19 years. W…

GRO J1008-57: an (almost) predictable transient X-ray binary

M. Kühnel, S. Müller, I. Kreykenbohm +13

A study of archival RXTE, Swift, and Suzaku pointed observations of the transient high mass X-ray binary GRO J1008-57 is presented. A new orbital ephemeris based on pulse arrival t…

Observations of The High Mass X-ray Binary A0535+26 in Quiescence

Richard Rothschild, Alex Markowitz, Paul Hemphill +7

We have analyzed 3 observations of the High Mass X-ray Binary A0535+26 performed by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) 3, 5, and 6 months after the last outburst in 2011 Februa…

Cygnus X-1: shedding light on the spectral variability of a black hole

V. Grinberg, N. Hell, J. Wilms +17

The knowledge of the spectral state of a black hole is essential for the interpretation of data from black holes in terms of their emission models. Based on pointed observations of…

A double-peaked outburst of A 0535+26 observed with INTEGRAL, RXTE, and Suzaku

I. Caballero, K. Pottschmidt, D. M. Marcu +18

The Be/X-ray binary A 0535+26 showed a normal (type I) outburst in August 2009. It is the fourth in a series of normal outbursts associated with the periastron, but is unusual by p…
