GX 349+2 (Sco X-2): An odd-ball among the Z sources

Erik Kuulkers, Michiel van der Klis

We report on about 4 hrs of observations made with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer on 1997 May 2 of the low-mass X-ray binary and Z source GX 349+2 (Sco X-2). Initially the source…

Non-detection of kHz QPOs in GX 9+1 and GX 9+9

Rudy Wijnands, Michiel van der Klis, Jan van Paradijs

In numerous low-mass X-ray binaries kHz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) are detected. We observed the atoll sources GX 9+1 and GX 9+9 with the RXTE satellite. Both sources w…

Kilohertz QPO and Atoll Source States in 4U 0614+09

M. Mendez, M. van der Klis, J. van Paradijs +5

We report three RXTE/PCA observations of the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 0614+09. They show strong (~ 30% rms) band-limited noise with a cut-off frequency varying between 0.7 and 15 H…

Quantifying Rapid Variability in Accreting Compact Objects

M. van der Klis

I discuss some practical aspects of the analysis of millisecond time variability X-ray data obtained from accreting neutron stars and black holes. First I give an account of the st…

Ginga observations of Cygnus X-2

R. A. D. Wijnands, M. van der Klis, E. Kuulkers +2

We analysed all X-ray data on the low-mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2 obtained with Ginga. The analysis of the spectral and fast timing behaviour of these 4 years of data provides new…

Correlated X-ray spectral and fast-timing behaviour of 4U 1636-53

S. Prins, M. van der Klis

We present a study of the persistent X-ray emission from the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53 based ont he entire archival EXOSAT ME data set. We per- formed a homogeneous analysis…
