Neutron Star Radius-to-mass Ratio from Partial Accretion Disc Occultation as Measured through Fe K Line Profiles
Riccardo La Placa, Luigi Stella, Alessando Papitto +5
We present a new method to measure the radius-to-mass ratio (R/M) of weakly magnetic, disc-accreting neutron stars by exploiting the occultation of parts of the inner disc by the s…
Search for the optical counterpart of the GW170814 gravitationalwave event with the VLT Survey Telescope
A. Grado, E. Cappellaro, S. Covino +30
We report on the search for the optical counterpart of the gravitational event GW170814, which was carried out with the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) by the GRAvitational Wave Inaf Te…
The Ultraluminous X-ray sources population of the galaxy NGC 7456
F. Pintore, M. Marelli, R. Salvaterra +28
Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are a class of accreting compact objects with X-ray luminosities above 1e39 erg/s. The ULX population counts several hundreds objects but only a…
