Is there a retrograde accretion disk around 4U 162667? Tracking torque reversals with a state-space model
Joseph O'Leary, Andrew Melatos, Tom Kimpson +5
X-ray timing studies of the persistent, Galactic, accretion-powered pulsar 4U 162667 reveal torque reversals, during which the pulse frequency alternates between multiye…

XMM-Newton high-resolution spectroscopy of EXO 0748-676 after its re-emergence from a long quiescence
Sayantan Bhattacharya, Sudip Bhattacharyya, Gargi Shaw
EXO 0748-676 is a well-studied, high-inclination, dipping, and eclipsing neutron star low-mass X-ray binary that has recently emerged from 16 years of quiescence into a new outburs…
