Relativistic X-ray Reflection Models for Accreting Neutron Stars
Javier A. Garcia, Thomas Dauser, Renee Ludlam +4
We present new reflection models specifically tailored to model the X-ray radiation reprocessed in accretion disks around neutron stars, in which the primary continuum is character…
A Spectroscopic Angle on Central Engine Size Scales in Accreting Neutron Stars
Nicolas Trueba, J. M. Miller, A. C. Fabian +9
Analyses of absorption from disk winds and atmospheres in accreting compact objects typically treat the central emitting regions in these systems as point sources relative to the a…
Photospheric Radius Expansion and a double-peaked type-I X-ray burst from GRS 1741.9-2853
Sean N. Pike, Fiona A. Harrison, John A. Tomsick +6
We present analysis of two type-I X-ray bursts observed by NuSTAR originating from the very faint transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary GRS 1741.9-2853 during a period of ou…
A NICER View of the Massive Pulsar PSR J0740+6620 Informed by Radio Timing and XMM-Newton Spectroscopy
Thomas E. Riley, Anna L. Watts, Paul S. Ray +27
We report on Bayesian estimation of the radius, mass, and hot surface regions of the massive millisecond pulsar PSR J07406620, conditional on pulse-profile modeling of Neutron S…
StrayCats: A catalog of NuSTAR Stray Light Observations
Brian W. Grefenstette, Renee M. Ludlam, Ellen T. Thompson +10
We present StrayCats: a catalog of NuSTAR stray light observations of X-ray sources. Stray light observations arise for sources 1--4 away from the telescope pointing dire…
