Fingerprints of thermal Comptonization in accreting neutron stars. Plasma-vacuum interplay in cyclotron lines and polarisation
E. Sokolova-Lapa, D. K. Maniadakis, J. J. R. Stierhof +11
X-ray emission from accreting, strongly magnetised neutron stars and its pulse-phase variability probe their magnetic-field geometry, spin orientation, and emission processes. Whet…
Pulse profiles of accreting neutron stars - A review of analysis methods, observations, and theoretical models
Katja Pottschmidt, Peter Kretschmar, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa +25
X-ray pulsars are highly magnetized ( G) neutron stars accreting from a donor star. Their characteristic X-ray emission arises from accreted material decelerated fro…
The low luminosity end of Galactic HMXBs with eROSITA: Establishing a luminosity floor for accreting BeXRBs
Aafia Zainab, Philipp Thalhammer, Nico Zalot +18
We present a first look at the Galactic population of heretofore known HMXBs as observed by SRG/eROSITA during its first four surveys. eROSITA's sensitivity of $\sim10^{-13}\,\math…
Energy-resolved pulse profiles of Vela X-1: cross-calibrating XMM-Newton and NuSTAR to trace spectral features
Dimitrios K. Maniadakis, Antonino D'Aì, Camille M. Diez +12
Pulse profiles probe the emission geometry of accreting X-ray pulsars, but their observed shapes may depend on instrumental response and observational setup. The pulsed fraction sp…
A simple relation: Neutron star magnetic field strength and spectral shape at low mass accretion rates
Nicolas Zalot, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Aafia Zainab +8
The X-ray spectra of neutron stars with moderate magnetic fields ( G) in high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) at low X-ray luminosities ( e…
Flux variability of the "10 keV feature" of 4U 0115+63
Katrin Berger, Ekaterina Sokolova-Lapa, Ralf Ballhausen +14
X-ray spectra of accretion-powered X-ray pulsars can often be described using a power-law continuum with a high-energy cutoff, which might be further modified by additional spectra…
