The cooling phase of Type-I X-ray bursts in 4U 1636-53
Guobao Zhang, Mariano Mendez, Diego Altamirano
Time-resolved spectra during the cooling phase of thermonuclear X-ray bursts in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) can be used to measure the radii and masses of neutron stars. We ana…
The distance and internal composition of the neutron star in EXO 0748-676 with XMM-Newton
Guobao Zhang, Mariano Mendez, Peter Jonker +1
Recently, the neutron star X-ray binary EXO 0748-676 underwent a transition to quiescence. We analyzed an XMM-Newton observation of this source in quiescence, where we fitted the s…
XTE J1701-462 and its Implications for the Nature of Subclasses in Low-Magnetic-Field Neutron Star Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries
Jeroen Homan, Michiel van der Klis, Joel K. Fridriksson +8
We report on an analysis of RXTE data of the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (NS-LMXB) XTE J1701-462, obtained during its 2006-2007 outburst. The X-ray properties of t…
Rapid Cooling of the Neutron Star in the Quiescent Super-Eddington Transient XTE J1701-462
Joel K. Fridriksson, Jeroen Homan, Rudy Wijnands +7
We present Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer and Swift observations made during the final three weeks of the 2006-2007 outburst of the super-Eddington neutron star (NS) transient XTE J17…
A strong and broad iron line in the XMM-Newton spectrum of the new X-ray transient and black-hole candidate XTE J1652-453
Beike Hiemstra, Mariano Mendez, Chris Done +3
We observed the new X-ray transient and black-hole candidate XTE J1652-453 simultaneously with XMM-Newton and the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The observation was done durin…
