1SXPS: A deep Swift X-ray Telescope point source catalog with light curves and spectra
P. A. Evans, J. P. Osborne, A. P. Beardmore +9
We present the 1SXPS (Swift-XRT Point Source) catalog of 151,524 X-ray point-sources detected by the Swift-XRT in 8 years of operation. The catalog covers 1905 square degrees distr…
Extraordinary luminous soft X-ray transient MAXI J0158-744 as an ignition of a nova on a very massive O-Ne white dwarf
M. Morii, H. Tomida, M. Kimura +29
We present the observation of an extraordinary luminous soft X-ray transient, MAXI J0158-744, by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) on 2011 November 11. This transient is ch…
Broadband monitoring tracing the evolution of the jet and disk in the black hole candidate X-ray binary MAXI J1659-152
A. J. van der Horst, P. A. Curran, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +31
MAXI J1659-152 was discovered on 2010 September 25 as a new X-ray transient, initially identified as a gamma-ray burst, but was later shown to be a new X-ray binary with a black ho…
The Swift/BAT Hard X-ray Transient Monitor
Hans A. Krimm, Stephen T. Holland, Robin H. D. Corbet +14
The Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) hard X-ray transient monitor provides near real-time coverage of the X-ray sky in the energy range 15-50 keV. The BAT observes 88% of the sky…
The Swift Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients Project: a review, new results, and future perspectives
P. Romano, V. Mangano, L. Ducci +9
We present a review of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXT) Project, a systematic investigation of the properties of SFXTs with a strategy that combines Swift monitoring pro…
Swift/XRT orbital monitoring of the candidate supergiant fast X-ray transient IGR J17354-3255
L. Ducci, P. Romano, P. Esposito +5
We report on the Swift/X-ray Telescope (XRT) monitoring of the field of view around the candidate supergiant fast X-ray transient (SFXT) IGR J17354-3255, which is positionally asso…
