Swift J053041.9-665426, a new Be/X-ray binary pulsar in the Large Magellanic Cloud
G. Vasilopoulos, P. Maggi, F. Haberl +4
We observed the newly discovered X-ray source Swift J053041.9-665426 in the X-ray and optical regime to confirm its proposed nature as a high mass X-ray binary. We obtained XMM-New…
AGN behind the SMC selected from radio and X-ray surveys
R. Sturm, D. Drašković, M. D. Filipović +8
The XMM-Newton survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) revealed 3053 X-ray sources with the majority expected to be active galactic nuclei (AGN) behind the SMC. However, the hig…
The XMM-Newton survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud: The X-ray point-source catalogue
R. Sturm, F. Haberl, W. Pietsch +8
Local-Group galaxies provide access to samples of X-ray source populations of whole galaxies. The XMM-Newton survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) completely covers the bar an…
X-ray source variability study of the M 31 central field using Chandra HRC-I
F. Hofmann, W. Pietsch, M. Henze +5
[Abridged] The central field of the Andromeda galaxy (M 31) has been monitored, using the Chandra HRC-I detector (about 0.1-10 keV energy range) from 2006 to 2012 with the main aim…
Long-term evolution of the neutron-star spin period of SXP 1062
R. Sturm, F. Haberl, L. M. Oskinova +4
The Be/X-ray binary SXP1062 is of especial interest owing to the large spin period of the neutron star, its large spin-down rate, and the association with a supernova remnant const…
Discovery of a 168.8 s X-ray pulsar transiting in front of its Be companion star in the Large Magellanic Cloud
P. Maggi, F. Haberl, R. Sturm +5
We report the discovery of LXP169, a new high-mass X-ray binary (XRB) in the LMC. The optical counterpart has been identified and appears to exhibit an eclipsing light curve. We pe…
RXJ0123.4-7321, a Be/X-ray binary in the wing of the SMC
R. Sturm, F. Haberl, W. Pietsch +1
To confirm faint Be/X-ray binary candidates from the XMM-Newton survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud, we searched for X-ray outbursts in archival ROSAT observations. We found that…
