A Global Spectral Study of Black Hole X-ray Binaries
Robert Dunn, Rob Fender, Elmar Koerding +2
(Abridged) We report on a consistent and comprehensive spectral analysis of the X-ray emission of 25 Black Hole X-ray Binaries. All publicly available observations of the black hol…
States and transitions in black-hole binaries
T. M. Belloni
With the availability of the large database of black-hole transients from the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer, the observed phenomenology has become very complex. The original classifi…
The evolution of the high-energy cut-off in the X-Ray spectrum of the GX 339-4 across a hard-to-soft transition
S. Motta, T. Belloni, J. Homan
We report on X-ray observations of the black-hole candidate GX 339-4 during its 2006/2007 outburst. The hardness-intensity diagram of all RXTE/PCA data combined shows a q-shaped tr…
Black-hole binaries: life begins at 40 keV
Tomaso M. Belloni, Sara Motta
In the study of black-hole transients, an important problem that still needs to be answered is how the high-energy part of the spectrum evolves from the low-hard to the high-soft s…
A failed outburst of H1743-322
Fiamma Capitanio, Tomaso Belloni, Melania Del Santo +1
We report on a campaign of X-ray and soft gamma-ray observations of the black hole candidate H 1743-322 (also named IGR J17464-3213), performed with the RXTE, INTEGRAL and Swift sa…
Type I X-ray Bursts from the Neutron-star Transient XTE J1701-462
Dacheng Lin, Diego Altamirano, Jeroen Homan +3
The neutron-star X-ray transient XTE J1701-462 was observed for 3 Ms with \xte during its 2006-2007 outburst. Here we report on the discovery of three type-I X-ray bursts fro…
