NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observations of the extreme ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 5907 ULX1: A Vanishing Act

D. J. Walton, F. A. Harrison, M. Bachetti +15

We present results obtained from two broadband X-ray observations of the extreme ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC5907 ULX1, known to have a peak X-ray luminosity of ~5e40 erg/s…

NuSTAR observation of a Type I X-ray burst from GRS 1741.9-2853

Nicolas M. Barrière, Roman Krivonos, John A. Tomsick +11

We report on two NuSTAR observations of GRS 1741.9-2853, a faint neutron star low mass X-ray binary burster located 10' away from the Galactic center. NuSTAR detected the source se…

New Constraints on the Black Hole Low/Hard State Inner Accretion Flow with NuSTAR

J. M. Miller, J. A. Tomsick, M. Bachetti +12

We report on an observation of the Galactic black hole candidate GRS 1739-278 during its 2014 outburst, obtained with NuSTAR. The source was captured at the peak of a rising "low/h…

An Ultraluminous X-ray Source Powered by An Accreting Neutron Star

M. Bachetti, F. A. Harrison, D. J. Walton +21

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULX) are off-nuclear point sources in nearby galaxies whose X-ray luminosity exceeds the theoretical maximum for spherical infall (the Eddington limit)…

NuSTAR Discovery of a Cyclotron Line in the Be/X-ray Binary RX J0520.5-6932 During Outburst

Shriharsh P. Tendulkar, Felix Fürst, Katja Pottschmidt +11

We present spectral and timing analysis of NuSTAR observations of RX J0520.56932 in the 3-79 keV band collected during its outburst in January 2014. The target was observed on t…

No Time for Dead Time: Timing analysis of bright black hole binaries with NuSTAR

Matteo Bachetti, Fiona A. Harrison, Rick Cook +20

Timing of high-count rate sources with the NuSTAR Small Explorer Mission requires specialized analysis techniques. NuSTAR was primarily designed for spectroscopic observations of s…
