The 2015 outburst of the accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J17511-3057 as seen by INTEGRAL, Swift and XMM-Newton
A. Papitto, E. Bozzo, C. Sanchez-Fernandez +5
We report on INTEGRAL, Swift and XMM-Newton observations of IGR J17511-3057 performed during the outburst that occurred between March 23 and April 25, 2015. The source reached a pe…
Evidence for the magnetar nature of 1E 161348-5055 in RCW 103
A. D'Aì, P. A. Evans, D. N. Burrows +25
We report on the detection of a bright, short, structured X-ray burst coming from the supernova remnant RCW 103 on 2016 June 22 caught by the Swift/BAT monitor, and on the follow-u…
Searching for supergiant fast X-ray transients with Swift
P. Romano, E. Bozzo, P. Esposito +11
Supergiant fast X-ray transients (SFXTs) are high mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) hosting a neutron star and an OB supergiant companion. We examine the available Swift data, as well as…
NuSTAR and Swift observations of the very high state in GX 339-4: Weighing the black hole with X-rays
M. L. Parker, J. A. Tomsick, J. A. Kennea +14
We present results from spectral fitting of the very high state of GX~339-4 with NuSTAR and Swift. We use relativistic reflection modelling to measure the spin of the black hole an…
Broad-band properties of flat-spectrum radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies
L. Foschini, M. Berton, A. Caccianiga +27
We report about recent updates of broad-band properties of radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies.
Measuring A Truncated Disk in Aquila X-1
Ashley L. King, John A. Tomsick, Jon M. Miller +14
We present NuSTAR and Swift observations of the neutron star Aquila X-1 during the peak of its July 2014 outburst. The spectrum is soft with strong evidence for a broad Fe Kαline.…
