NuSTAR discovery of a cyclotron line in the accreting X-ray pulsar IGR J16393-4643

Arash Bodaghee, John A. Tomsick, Francesca A. Fornasini +10

The high-mass X-ray binary and accreting X-ray pulsar IGR J16393-4643 was observed by NuSTAR in the 3-79 keV energy band for a net exposure time of 50 ks. We present the results of…

NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observations of 1E1743.1-2843: indications of a neutron star LMXB nature of the compact object

Simone Lotti, Lorenzo Natalucci, Kaya Mori +13

We report on the results of NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observations of the persistent X-ray source 1E1743.1-2843, located in the Galactic Center region. The source was observed between…

The first X-ray imaging spectroscopy of quiescent solar active regions with NuSTAR

I. G. Hannah, B. W. Grefenstette, D. M. Smith +15

We present the first observations of quiescent active regions (ARs) using NuSTAR, a focusing hard X-ray telescope capable of studying faint solar emission from high temperature and…

Demonstrating the likely neutron star nature of five M31 globular cluster sources with Swift-NuSTAR spectroscopy

Thomas J. Maccarone, Mihoko Yukita, Ann Hornschemeier +17

We present the results of a joint Swift-NuSTAR spectroscopy campaign on M31. We focus on the five brightest globular cluster X-ray sources in our fields. Two of these had previousl…

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.…

Peering through the Dust: NuSTAR Observations of Two FIRST-2MASS Red Quasars

Stephanie M. LaMassa, Angelo Ricarte, Eilat Glikman +17

Some reddened quasars appear to be transitional objects in the merger-induced black hole growth/galaxy evolution paradigm, where a heavily obscured nucleus starts to be unveiled by…
