MAXI J1957+032: a new accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar in an ultra-compact binary
A. Sanna, P. Bult, M. NG +12
The detection of coherent X-ray pulsations at ~314 Hz (3.2 ms) classifies MAXI J1957+032 as a fast-rotating, accreting neutron star. We present the temporal and spectral analysis p…
The discovery of the 528.6 Hz accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar MAXI J1816-195
Peter Bult, Diego Altamirano, Zaven Arzoumanian +15
We present the discovery of 528.6 Hz pulsations in the new X-ray transient MAXI J1816-195. Using NICER, we observed the first recorded transient outburst from the neutron star low-…
Outflows and spectral evolution in the eclipsing AMXP SWIFT J1749.4-2807 with NICER, XMM-Newton and NuSTAR
A. Marino, A. Anitra, S. M. Mazzola +18
The neutron star low-mass X-ray binary SWIFT J1749.4-2807 is the only known eclipsing accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar. In this manuscript we perform a spectral characterization…
Burst-Disk Interaction in 4U 1636-536 as observed by NICER
Tolga Guver, Funda Bostanci, Tugba Boztepe +10
We present the detection of 51 thermonuclear X-ray bursts observed from 4U 1636-536 by the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) over the course of a three year monito…
Evidence for a Compact Object in the Aftermath of the Extra-Galactic Transient AT2018cow
Dheeraj R. Pasham, Wynn C. G. Ho, William Alston +16
The brightest Fast Blue Optical Transients (FBOTs) are mysterious extragalactic explosions that may represent a new class of astrophysical phenomena. Their fast time to maximum bri…
Pulse amplitude depends on kHz QPO frequency in the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
Peter Bult, Michiel van der Klis
We study the relation between the 300-700 Hz upper kHz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) and the 401 Hz coherent pulsations across all outbursts of the accreting millisecond X-ray p…
