The mass function of GX 339-4 from spectroscopic observations of its donor star
M. Heida, P. G. Jonker, M. A. P. Torres +1
We obtained 16 VLT/X-shooter observations of GX 339-4 in quiescence in the period May - September 2016 and detected absorption lines from the donor star in its NIR spectrum. This a…
Spectroscopic classification of X-ray sources in the Galactic Bulge Survey
T. Wevers, M. A. P. Torres, P. G. Jonker +14
We present the classification of 26 optical counterparts to X-ray sources discovered in the Galactic Bulge Survey. We use (time-resolved) photometric and spectroscopic observations…
The Chandra Galactic Bulge Survey: optical catalogue and point-source counterparts to X-ray sources
T. Wevers, S. T. Hodgkin, P. G. Jonker +12
As part of the Chandra Galactic Bulge Survey (GBS), we present a catalogue of optical sources in the GBS footprint. This consists of two regions centered at Galactic latitude b = 1…
The Relationship Between X-ray Luminosity and Duty Cycle for Dwarf Novae and their Specific Frequency in the Inner Galaxy
C. T. Britt, T. J. Maccarone, M. L. Pretorius +9
We measure the duty cycles for an existing sample of well observed, nearby dwarf novae using data from AAVSO, and present a quantitative empirical relation between the duty cycle o…
