X-ray Eclipse Mapping Constrains the Binary Inclination and Mass Ratio of Swift J1858.6-0814
Amy H. Knight, Adam Ingram, Matthew Middleton
X-ray eclipse mapping is a promising modelling technique, capable of constraining the mass and/or radius of neutron stars (NSs) or black holes (BHs) in eclipsing binaries and probi…
The NICER "Reverberation Machine": A Systematic Study of Time Lags in Black Hole X-Ray Binaries
Jingyi Wang, Erin Kara, Matteo Lucchini +12
We perform the first systematic search of all NICER archival observations of black hole (and candidate) low-mass X-ray binaries for signatures of reverberation. Reverberation lags…
Eclipse Mapping of EXO 0748-676: Evidence for a Massive Neutron Star
Amy H. Knight, Adam Ingram, Matthew Middleton +1
Determining the maximum possible neutron star (NS) mass places limits on the equation of state (EoS) of ultra-dense matter. The mass of NSs in low mass X-ray binaries can be determ…
Phase-resolved spectroscopy of a quasi-periodic oscillation in the black hole X-ray binary GRS 1915+105 with NICER and NuSTAR
Edward Nathan, Adam Ingram, Jeroen Homan +6
Quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are often present in the X-ray flux from accreting stellar-mass black holes (BHs). If they are due to relativistic (Lense-Thirring) precession of…
Modelling correlated variability in accreting black holes: the effect of high density and variable ionisation on reverberation lags
Guglielmo Mastroserio, Adam Ingram, Jingyi Wang +9
We present a new release of the RELTRANS model to fit the complex cross-spectrum of accreting black holes as a function of energy. The model accounts for continuum lags and reverbe…
Predicting the self-lensing population in optical surveys
Grzegorz Wiktorowicz, Matthew Middleton, Norman Khan +3
The vast majority of binaries containing a compact object and a regular star spend most of their time in a quiescent state where no strong interactions occur between components. De…
