Absence of reflection features in NuSTAR spectra of the luminous neutron star X-ray binary GX 5-1
Jeroen Homan, James F. Steiner, Dacheng Lin +4
We present NuSTAR observations of the luminous neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS LMXB) and Z source GX 5-1. During our three observations made with separations of roughly two…
Truncation of the Accretion Disk at One Third of the Eddington Limit in the Neutron Star Low-Mass X-ray Binary Aquila X-1
Renee M. Ludlam, Jon M. Miller, Nathalie Degenaar +4
We perform a reflection study on a new observation of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Aquila X-1 taken with NuSTAR during the August 2016 outburst and compare with the July…
A NuSTAR observation of the low mass X-ray binary GX 349+2 throughout the Z-track
Benjamin M. Coughenour, Edward M. Cackett, Jon M. Miller +1
Although the most luminous class of neutron star low mass X-ray binaries, known as Z sources, have been well studied, their behavior is not fully understood. In particular, what ca…
Relativistic Disk Reflection in the Neutron Star X-ray Binary XTE J1709-267 with NuSTAR
R. M. Ludlam, J. M. Miller, E. C. Cackett +2
We perform the first reflection study of the soft X-ray transient and Type 1 burst source XTE J1709-267 using NuSTAR observations during its 2016 June outburst. There was an increa…
A Hard Look at the Neutron Stars and Accretion Disks in 4U 1636-53, GX 17+2, and 4U 1705-44 with
R. M. Ludlam, J. M. Miller, M. Bachetti +9
We present observations of neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binaries: 4U 1636-53, GX 17+2, and 4U 1705-44. We observed 4U 1636-53 in the hard state, with an Eddingt…
