Correlated X-ray and Optical Variability in X-ray Binaries
R. I. Hynes
It has long been known that X-ray and optical/UV variability in active X-ray binaries is sometimes correlated. The expectation has been that this arises from rapid reprocessing of…
Bowen Fluorescence from Companion Stars in X-ray Binaries
J. Casares, D. Steeghs, R. I. Hynes +3
This paper will review a new technique of detecting companion stars in LMXBs and X-ray transients in outburst using the Bowen fluorescence lines at 4634-4640 Angs. These lines are…
Visualising Interacting Binaries in 3D
R. I. Hynes
I have developed a code which allows images to be produced of a variety of interacting binaries for any system parameters. The resulting images are not only helpful in visualising…
Multiwavelength observations revealing the outbursts of the two soft X-ray transients XTE J1859+226 and XTE J1118+480
S. Chaty, C. A. Haswell, R. I. Hynes +9
We report here on multiwavelength observations of the two new soft X-ray transients (SXTs) XTE J1859+226 and XTE J1118+480, which we observed with HST/RXTE/UKIRT. For XTE J1118+480…
Doppler Tomography of XTE J2123-058 and Other Neutron Star LMXBs
R. I. Hynes, P. A. Charles, C. A. Haswell +2
We describe Doppler tomography obtained in the 1998 outburst of the neutron star low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) XTE J2123-058. This analysis, and other aspects of phase-resolved spec…
HST Observations of Black Hole X-ray Transient Outbursts
R. I. Hynes, C. A. Haswell
The Hubble Space Telescope has now observed four black hole X-ray transients in outburst under an ongoing Target-of-Opportunity program: GRO J0422+32 (1994), GRO J1655-40 (1996), X…
