Advances in Understanding High-Mass X-ray Binaries with INTEGRAL and Future Directions

Peter Kretschmar, Felix Fürst, Lara Sidoli +48

High mass X-ray binaries are among the brightest X-ray sources in the Milky Way, as well as in nearby Galaxies. Thanks to their highly variable emissions and complex phenomenology,…

Multiwavelength study of the fast rotating supergiant high-mass X-ray binary IGR J16465-4507

Sylvain Chaty, Audrey LeReun, Ignacio Negueruela +6

Since its launch, the X-ray and gamma-ray observatory INTEGRAL satellite has revealed a new class of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXB) displaying fast flares and hosting supergiant c…

Fast X-ray transients in the Galactic bulge with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer

David M. Smith, Craig B. Markwardt, Jean H. Swank +1

In X-ray binaries, rapid variability in X-ray flux of greater than an order of magnitude on time-scales of a day or less appears to be a signature of wind accretion from a supergia…

Astrophysical parameters of LS2883 and implications for the PSR B1259-63 gamma-ray binary

Ignacio Negueruela, Marc Ribó, Artemio Herrero +3

Only a few binary systems with compact objects display TeV emission. The physical properties of the companion stars represent basic input to understand the physical mechanisms behi…

Long-term Monitoring of Accreting Pulsars with Fermi GBM

Mark H. Finger, Elif Beklen, P. Narayana Bhat +9

Using the Gamma ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on Fermi we are monitoring accreting pulsar systems. We use the rates from GBM's 12 NaI detectors in the 8-50 keV range to detect and monito…

The X-ray source content of the XMM-Newton Galactic Plane Survey

C. Motch, R. Warwick, M. S. Cropper +10

We report the results of an optical campaign carried out by the XMM-Newton Survey Science Centre with the specific goal of identifying the brightest X-ray sources in the XMM-Newton…
