Simultaneous NICER and NuSTAR Observations of the Ultra-compact X-ray Binary 4U 0614+091

David Moutard, Renee Ludlam, Javier A. García +13

We present the first joint NuSTAR and NICER observations of the ultra-compact X-ray binary (UCXB) 4U 0614+091. This source shows quasi-periodic flux variations on the timescale of…

AstroSat view of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary GX 340+0

Yash Bhargava, Sudip Bhattacharyya, Jeroen Homan +1

Understanding the spectral evolution along the `Z'-shaped track in the hardness-intensity diagram of Z-sources, which are a class of luminous neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries,…

A misfired outburst in the neutron star X-ray binary Centaurus X-4

M. C. Baglio, P. Saikia, D. M. Russell +12

We report on a long-term optical monitoring of the neutron star X-ray binary Centaurus X-4 performed during the last 13.5 years. This source has been in quiescence since its outbur…

A "Hyperburst" in the MAXI J0556-332 Neutron Star: Evidence for a New Type of Thermonuclear Explosion

Dany Page, Jeroen Homan, Martin Nava-Callejas +5

The study of transiently accreting neutron stars provides a powerful means to elucidate the properties of neutron star crusts. We present extensive numerical simulations of the evo…

Radius Constraints from Reflection Modeling of Cygnus X-2 with NuSTAR and NICER

R. M. Ludlam, E. M. Cackett, J. A. García +8

We present a spectral analysis of NuSTAR and NICER observations of the luminous, persistently accreting neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2. The data were divided in…

Phase-resolved spectroscopy of a quasi-periodic oscillation in the black hole X-ray binary GRS 1915+105 with NICER and NuSTAR

Edward Nathan, Adam Ingram, Jeroen Homan +6

Quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are often present in the X-ray flux from accreting stellar-mass black holes (BHs). If they are due to relativistic (Lense-Thirring) precession of…
