The accretion rate dependence of burst oscillation amplitude
Laura S. Ootes, Anna L. Watts, Duncan K. Galloway +1
Neutron stars in low mass X-ray binaries exhibit oscillations during thermonuclear bursts, attributed to asymmetric brightness patterns on the burning surfaces. All models that hav…
A cold neutron star in the transient low-mass X-ray binary HETE J1900.1-2455 after 10 years of active accretion
N. Degenaar, L. S. Ootes, M. T. Reynolds +2
The neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and intermittent millisecond X-ray pulsar HETE J1900.1-2455 returned to quiescence in late 2015, after a prolonged accretion outburst of ~10…
Potential cooling of an accretion-heated neutron star crust in the low-mass X-ray binary 1RXS J180408.9-342058
Aastha S. Parikh, Rudy Wijnands, Nathalie Degenaar +11
We have monitored the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 1RXS J180408.9-342058 in quiescence after its ~4.5 month outburst in 2015. The source has been observed using Swi…
Neutron star crust cooling in KS 1731-260: the influence of accretion outburst variability on the crustal temperature evolution
Laura S. Ootes, Dany Page, Rudy Wijnands +1
Using a theoretical model, we track the thermal evolution of a cooling neutron star crust after an accretion induced heating period with the goal of constraining the crustal parame…
