Chandra X-Ray Spectroscopy of the Focused Wind in the Cygnus X-1 System. II. The Nondip Spectrum in the Low/Hard State - Modulations with Orbital Phase

Ivica Miškovičová, Natalie Hell, Manfred Hanke +14

The accretion onto the black hole in the system HDE 226868/Cygnus X-1 is powered by the strong line driven stellar wind of the O-type donor star. We study the X-ray properties of t…

X-ray reflection in oxygen-rich accretion discs of ultra-compact X-ray binaries

O. K. Madej, J. Garcia, P. G. Jonker +4

We present spectroscopic X-ray data of two candidate ultra-compact X-ray binaries: 4U~0614+091 and 4U~1543624. We confirm the presence of a broad O VIII Ly reflection line (a…

Variable Doppler shifts of the thermal wind absorption lines in low-mass X-ray binaries

O. K. Madej, P. G. Jonker, M. Diaz Trigo +1

In this paper we address the general applicability of the method pioneered by \citet{Zhang2012} in which the motion of the compact object can be tracked using wind X-ray absorption…

Time-resolved X-Shooter spectra and RXTE light curves of the ultra-compact X-ray binary candidate 4U 0614+091

O. K. Madej, P. G. Jonker, P. J. Groot +3

In this paper we present X-Shooter time resolved spectroscopy and RXTE PCA light curves of the ultra-compact X-ray binary candidate 4U 0614+091. The X-Shooter data are compared to…

Discovery of a broad O VIII Ly alpha line in the ultra-compact X-ray binary 4U 1543-624

O. K. Madej, P. G. Jonker

We report the discovery of a broad emission feature at ~0.7 keV in the spectra of the ultra-compact X-ray binary 4U 1543-624, obtained with the high-resolution spectrographs of the…

A relativistically broadened O VIII Lyalpha line in the ultra-compact X-ray binary 4U 0614+091

O. K. Madej, P. G. Jonker, A. C. Fabian +3

Ultra-compact X-ray binaries consist of a neutron star or black hole that accretes material from a white dwarf-donor star. The ultra-compact nature is expressed in very short orbit…
