XMM-Newton observations of IGRJ18410-0535: The ingestion of a clump by a supergiant fast X-ray transient

E. Bozzo, A. Giunta, G. Cusumano +6

IGRJ18410-0535 is a supergiant fast X-ray transients. This subclass of supergiant X-ray binaries typically undergoes few- hour-long outbursts reaching luminosities of 10^(36)-10^(3…

The populations of hard X- and γ-ray sources: a correlation study and new possible identifications

A. Maselli, G. Cusumano, E. Massaro +4

We present the results of our analysis devoted to the research of sources emitting in the energy bands surveyed by both the Swift-BAT and the Fermi-LAT telescopes. We cross-correla…

The Swift Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients Project: recent results

P. Romano, S. Vercellone, V. La Parola +8

We present an overview of our Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXT) project, that started in 2007, by highlighting the unique observational contribution Swift is giving to this e…

The Swift-BAT survey reveals the orbital period of three high-mass X-ray binaries

A. D'Aì, V. La Parola, G. Cusumano +4

A growing number of previously hidden Galactic X-ray sources are now detected with recent surveys performed by the Integral and Swift satellites. Most of these new sources eluded p…

The Swift Serendipitous Survey in deep XRT GRB fields (SwiftFT) I. The X-ray catalog and number counts

S. Puccetti, M. Capalbi, P. Giommi +12

We searched for X-ray serendipitous sources in over 370 Swift-XRT fields centered on gamma ray bursts detected between 2004 and 2008 and observed with total exposures ranging from…

Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients with Swift: catching outbursts and monitoring programs

P. Romano, J. A. Kennea, D. N. Burrows +8

Swift is shedding new light on the phenomenon of Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXTs), a recently discovered class of High-Mass X-ray Binaries, whose optical counterparts are O…
