Magnetic field decay, or just period-dependent beaming?
Joeri van Leeuwen, Frank Verbunt
Several recent papers conclude that radio-pulsar magnetic fields decay on a time-scale of 10 Myr, apparently contradicting earlier results. We have implemented the methods of these…
A superburst from 4U 1254-690
J. J. M. in 't Zand, E. Kuulkers, F. Verbunt +2
We report the detection with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras of a superburst from 4U 1254-690. The superburst is preceded by a normal type-I X-ray burst, has a decay time that is t…
Optical identification of the companion to PSR J1911-5958A, the pulsar binary in the outskirts of NGC 6752
C. G. Bassa, F. Verbunt, M. H. van Kerkwijk +1
We report on the identification of the optical counterpart of the binary millisecond pulsar PSR J1911-5958A, located in the outskirts of the globular cluster NGC 6752. At the posit…
Dynamical Formation of Close Binary Systems in Globular Clusters
D. Pooley, W. H. G. Lewin, S. F. Anderson +11
We know from observations that globular clusters are very efficient catalysts in forming unusual short-period binary systems or their offspring, such as low-mass X-ray binaries (LM…
Six years of BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras observations of nine galactic type-I X-ray bursters
R. Cornelisse, J. J. M. in 't Zand, F. Verbunt +7
We present an overview of BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras observations of the nine most frequent type-I X-ray bursters in the Galactic center region. Six years of observations (from 19…
