Observations of the Disk/Jet Coupling of MAXI J1820+070 During its Descent to Quiescence
A. W. Shaw, R. M. Plotkin, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +8
Black hole X-ray binaries in the quiescent state (Eddington ratios typically 10) display softer X-ray spectra (photon indices ) compared to higher-luminosi…
Simultaneous NICER and NuSTAR Observations of the Ultra-compact X-ray Binary 4U 1543-624
R. M. Ludlam, A. D. Jaodand, J. A. García +8
We present the first joint NuSTAR and NICER observations of the ultra-compact X-ray binary (UCXB) 4U 1543624 obtained in 2020 April. The source was at a luminosity of $L_{0.5-50…
Using Optical Spectroscopy to Map the Geometry and Structure of the Irradiated Accretion Discs in Low-mass X-ray Binaries: The Pilot-Study of MAXI J0637430
B. E. Tetarenko, A. W. Shaw, E. R. Manrow +4
The recurring transient outbursts in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) provide us with strong test-beds for constraining the poorly understood accretion process. While impossible to…
MAXI J1820+070 with NuSTAR II. Flaring during the hard to soft state transition with a long soft lag
D. J. K. Buisson, A. C. Fabian, P. Gandhi +6
We continue the analysis of NuSTAR data from the recent discovery outburst of MAXI J1820+070 (optical counterpart ASASSN-18ey), focussing on an observation including unusual flarin…
Measuring the masses of magnetic white dwarfs: A NuSTAR Legacy Survey
A. W. Shaw, C. O. Heinke, K. Mukai +11
The hard X-ray spectrum of magnetic cataclysmic variables can be modelled to provide a measurement of white dwarf mass. This method is complementary to radial velocity measurements…
The variable radio counterpart of Swift J1858.6-0814
J. van den Eijnden, N. Degenaar, T. D. Russell +18
Swift J1858.6-0814 is a transient neutron star X-ray binary discovered in October 2018. Multi-wavelength follow-up observations across the electromagnetic spectrum revealed many in…
