We review the spectral properties of the black hole candidate Cygnus X-1. Specifically, we discuss two recent sets of multi-satellite observations. One comprises a 0.5-500 keV spec…
Spinning-up: the case of the symbiotic X-ray binary 3A 1954+319
F. Fürst, D. M. Marcu, K. Pottschmidt +3
We present a timing and spectral analysis of the variable X-ray source 3A 1954+319. Our analysis is mainly based on an outburst serendipitously observed during INTEGRAL Key Program…
The 2010 May Flaring Episode of Cygnus X-3 in Radio, X-Rays, and γ-Rays
