Drop in the hard pulsed fraction and a candidate cyclotron line in IGR J16320-4751 seen by NuSTAR

Arash Bodaghee, Alan J. -L. Chiu, John A. Tomsick +10

We report on a timing and spectral analysis of a 50-ks NuSTAR observation of IGR J16320-4751 (= AX J1631.9-4752); a high-mass X-ray binary hosting a slowly-rotating neutron star. I…

Evolution of X-Ray Properties of MAXI J1535-571: Analysis with the TCAF Solution

J. -R. Shang, D. Debnath, D. Chatterjee +5

We present spectral and timing properties of the newly discovered X-ray transient source, MAXI J1535-571, which is believed to be a Galactic X-ray binary containing a black hole ca…

Alternative explanations for extreme supersolar iron abundances inferred from the energy spectrum of Cygnus X-1

John A. Tomsick, Michael L. Parker, Javier A. Garcia +11

Here we study a 1-200 keV energy spectrum of the black hole binary Cygnus X-1 taken with NuSTAR and Suzaku. This is the first report of a NuSTAR observation of Cyg X-1 in the inter…

Galactic Sources Detected in the NuSTAR Serendipitous Survey

John A. Tomsick, George B. Lansbury, Farid Rahoui +13

The Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) provides an improvement in sensitivity at energies above 10 keV by two orders of magnitude over non-focusing satellites, making i…

The NuSTAR Hard X-ray Survey of the Norma Arm Region

Francesca M. Fornasini, John A. Tomsick, JaeSub Hong +32

We present a catalog of hard X-ray sources in a square-degree region surveyed by NuSTAR in the direction of the Norma spiral arm. This survey has a total exposure time of 1.7 Ms, a…

IGR J18293-1213 is an eclipsing Cataclysmic Variable

Maïca Clavel, J. A. Tomsick, A. Bodaghee +7

Studying the population of faint hard X-ray sources along the plane of the Galaxy is challenging because of high-extinction and crowding, which make the identification of individua…
