An X-ray survey of the central molecular zone: variability of the Fe Ka emission line
R. Terrier, M. Clavel, S. Soldi +4
There is now abundant evidence that the luminosity of the Galactic super-massive black hole (SMBH) has not always been as low as it is nowadays. The observation of varying non-ther…
Glimpses of the past activity of Sgr A* inferred from X-ray echoes in Sgr C
Dimitri Chuard, Régis Terrier, Andrea Goldwurm +6
For a decade now, evidence has accumulated that giant molecular clouds located within the central molecular zone of our Galaxy reflect X-rays coming from past outbursts of the supe…
NuSTAR + XMM-Newton monitoring of the neutron star transient AX J1745.6-2901
G. Ponti, S. Bianchi, T. Munos-Darias +12
AX J1745.6-2901 is a high-inclination (eclipsing) transient neutron star (NS) Low Mass X-ray Binary (LMXB) showcasing intense ionised Fe K absorption. We present here the analysis…
Evolution of the reverberation lag in GX 339-4 at the end of an outburst
B. De Marco, G. Ponti, P. O. Petrucci +13
We studied X-ray reverberation lags in the BHXRB GX 339-4 at the end of the 2014-2015 outburst. We analysed data from a XMM-Newton campaign covering the end of the transition from…
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…
Sagittarius A* High Energy X-ray Flare Properties During NuSTAR Monitoring of the Galactic Center from 2012 to 2015
Shuo Zhang, Frederick K. Baganoff, Gabriele Ponti +17
Understanding the origin of the flaring activity from the Galactic center supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*, is a major scientific goal of the NuSTAR Galactic plane survey ca…
