NICER X-ray Observations of Seven Nearby Rotation-Powered Millisecond Pulsars
S. Guillot, M. Kerr, P. S. Ray +18
NICER observed several rotation-powered millisecond pulsars to search for or confirm the presence of X-ray pulsations. When broad and sine-like, these pulsations may indicate therm…
Timing the pulsations of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during its 2019 outburst
Peter Bult, Deepto Chakrabarty, Zaven Arzoumanian +5
In this paper we present a coherent timing analysis of the 401 Hz pulsations of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during its 2019 outburst. Using observations…
A NICER thermonuclear burst from the millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
Peter Bult, Gaurava K. Jaisawal, Tolga Güver +9
The Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) has extensively monitored the August 2019 outburst of the 401 Hz millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658. In this Letter, w…
Discovery and Identification of MAXI J1621-501 as a Type I X-ray Burster with a Super-Orbital Period
Nicholas M. Gorgone, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Hitoshi Negoro +26
MAXI J1621-501 is the first Swift/XRT Deep Galactic Plane Survey transient that was followed up with a multitude of space missions (NuSTAR, Swift, Chandra, NICER, INTEGRAL, and MAX…
NICER observes a secondary peak in the decay of a thermonuclear burst from 4U 1608-52
Gaurava K. Jaisawal, Jérôme Chenevez, Peter Bult +14
We report for the first time below 1.5 keV, the detection of a secondary peak in an Eddington-limited thermonuclear X-ray burst observed by the Neutron Star Interior Composition Ex…
NICER Observation of Unusual Burst Oscillations in 4U 1728-34
Simin Mahmoodifar, Tod E. Strohmayer, Peter Bult +9
The Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) has observed seven thermonuclear X-ray bursts from the Low Mass X-ray Binary (LMXB) neutron star 4U 1728-34 from the start of…
