The 100-month Swift catalogue of supergiant fast X-ray transients II. SFXT diagnostics from outburst properties

Romano P., Evans P. A., Bozzo E. +9

Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXT) are High Mass X-ray Binaries displaying X-ray outbursts reaching peak luminosities of 10 erg/s and spend most of their life in more q…

The Virgo O3 run and the impact of the environment

F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +486

Sources of geophysical noise (such as wind, sea waves and earthquakes) or of anthropogenic noise impact ground-based gravitational-wave interferometric detectors, causing transient…

Casimir energy for N superconducting cavities: a model for the YBCO (BSCCO)

A. Allocca, S. Avino, S. Balestrieri +31

In this paper we study the Casimir energy of a sample made by N cavities, with N >> 1, across the transition from the metallic to the superconducting phase of the constituting plat…

Giant outburst from the supergiant fast X-ray transient IGR J17544-2619: accretion from a transient disc?

P. Romano, E. Bozzo, V. Mangano +7

Supergiant fast X-ray transients (SFXTs) are high mass X-ray binaries associated with OB supergiant companions and characterised by an X-ray flaring behaviour whose dynamical range…

Probing the emission physics and weak/soft population of Gamma-Ray Bursts with LOFT

L. Amati, G. Stratta, J. -L. Atteia +36

This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…

A directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +891

We present results of a search for continuously-emitted gravitational radiation, directed at the brightest low-mass X-ray binary, Scorpius X-1. Our semi-coherent analysis covers 10…
