Spin period evolution and X-ray spectral characteristics of the SMC pulsar SXP 46.6
Aman Kaushik, Sayantan Bhattacharya, Sudip Bhattacharyya
We characterize the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) pulsar SXP 46.6 using NuSTAR observations conducted in 2017. The spin period (P) of this neutron star decreased from its discovered…

Probing the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 using the evolution of its spectral and aperiodic timing properties
Aman Kaushik, Yash Bhargava, Sudip Bhattacharyya +1
Understanding accretion components in neutron star (NS) low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) systems is important to probe fundamental aspects of accretion mechanism and evolution of the s…

X-ray and Radio Campaign of the Z-source GX 340+0 II: the X-ray polarization in the normal branch
Yash Bhargava, Thomas D. Russell, Mason Ng +11
We present the first X-ray polarization measurement of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary and Z-source, GX 3400, in the normal branch (NB) using a 200 ks observation with th…
