Orbital decay in M82 X-2
Matteo Bachetti, Marianne Heida, Thomas Maccarone +21
M82 X-2 is the first pulsating ultraluminous X-ray source (PULX) discovered. The luminosity of these extreme pulsars, if isotropic, implies an extreme mass transfer rate. An altern…
Evolution of the spin, spectrum and super-orbital period of the ultraluminous X-ray pulsar M51 ULX7
Murray Brightman, Matteo Bachetti, Hannah Earnshaw +6
M51 ULX7 is among a small group of known ultraluminous X-ray pulsars (ULXP). The neutron star powering the source has a spin period of 2.8s, orbits its companion star with a period…
Science with the Ultraviolet Explorer (UVEX)
S. R. Kulkarni, Fiona A. Harrison, Brian W. Grefenstette +53
UVEX is a proposed medium class Explorer mission designed to provide crucial missing capabilities that will address objectives central to a broad range of modern astrophysics. The…
Gem: a hierarchical triple system with an outer Be star
Robert Klement, Petr Hadrava, Thomas Rivinius +17
Time series of spectroscopic, speckle-interferometric, and optical long-baseline-interferometric observations confirm that Gem is a hierarchical triple system. It consists of a…
Long-term pulse period evolution of the ultra-luminous X-ray pulsar NGC 7793 P13
F. Fuerst, D. J. Walton, M. Heida +14
Ultra-luminous X-ray pulsars (ULXPs) provide a unique opportunity to study super-Eddington accretion. We present the results of a monitoring campaign of ULXP NGC 7793 P13. Over our…
