A spectro-temporal view of normal branch oscillations in Cygnus X-2 as seen by NICER and NuSTAR

Malu Sudha, Renee M. Ludlam, Diego Altamirano +2

We report the spectro-temporal study of the neutron star low mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2 using NICER and NuSTAR data while the source was in the normal branch (NB). We detect a no…

NICER observes the full Z-track in GX 13+1

Mohamad Ali Kaddouh, Malu Sudha, Renee M. Ludlam

We present the temporal analysis of the persistent neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS LMXB) GX 13+1 using NICER data. Classification of this source has been ambiguous so far. W…

A View of the Long-Term Spectral Behavior of Ultra Compact X-Ray Binary 4U 0614+091

David L. Moutard, Renee M. Ludlam, Edward M. Cackett +3

In this study, we examine 51 archival NICER observations and 6 archival NuSTAR observations of the neutron star (NS) ultra-compact X-ray binary (UCXB) 4U 0614+091, which span over…

Physics of 1 keV line in X-ray binaries

Priyanka Chakraborty, Gary Ferland, Andrew Fabian +5

X-ray binaries (XRBs) often exhibit spectral residuals in the 0.5 to 2 keV range, known as the ``1 keV residual/1 keV feature", with variable centroid and intensity across differen…

The Radius of the High-mass Pulsar PSR J0740+6620 with 3.6 yr of NICER Data

Tuomo Salmi, Devarshi Choudhury, Yves Kini +14

We report an updated analysis of the radius, mass, and heated surface regions of the massive pulsar PSR J0740+6620 using Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) data fro…

Return to the forgotten ULX: a broadband NICER+NuSTAR study of NGC 4190 ULX-1

Hannah P Earnshaw, Matteo Bachetti, Murray Brightman +7

We observed the nearby and relatively understudied ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC 4190 ULX-1 jointly with NICER and NuSTAR to investigate its broadband spectrum, timing prope…

Investigating the Ultra-Compact X-ray Binary Candidate SLX 1735-269 with NICER and NuSTAR

David Moutard, Renee Ludlam, Malu Sudha +8

We present two simultaneous NICER and NuSTAR observations of the ultra-compact X-ray binary (UCXB) candidate SLX 1735-269 while the source was in two different spectral states. Usi…
