A model for cyclotron resonance scattering features

G. Schönherr, J. Wilms, P. Kretschmar +5

(abbreviated version of the abstract) We study the physics of cyclotron line formation in the high-energy spectra of accreting X-ray pulsars using Monte Carlo methods, assuming tha…

Discovery of a flux-related change of the cyclotron line energy in Her X-1

R. Staubert, N. I. Shakura, K. Postnov +5

We present the results of ten years of repeated measurements of the Cyclotron Resonance Scattering Feature (CRSF) in the spectrum of the binary X-ray pulsar Her X-1 and report the…

Study of the cyclotron feature in MXB 0656-072

V. A. McBride, J. Wilms, M. J. Coe +7

We have monitored a Type II outburst of the Be/X-ray binary MXB 0656-072 in a series of pointed RXTE observations during October through December 2003. The source spectrum shows a…

3A 0535+262 in outburst

P. Kretschmar, K. Pottschmidt, C. Ferrigno +10

The Be/X-ray binary 3A 0535+262 has the highest magnetic field determined by cyclotron line studies of all accreting X-ray pulsars, despite an open debate if the fundamental line w…

RXTE Discovery of Multiple Cyclotron Lines during the 2004 December Outburst of V0332+53

K. Pottschmidt, I. Kreykenbohm, J. Wilms +6

We present an analysis of the 2-150 keV spectrum of the transient X-ray pulsar V0332+53 taken with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) in 2004 December. We report on the detecti…

Observation of V0332+53 over the 2004/2005 outburst with Integral

I. Kreykenbohm, N. Mowlavi, K. Pottschmidt +8

We present the spectral and temporal analysis of the 2004/2005 outburst of the transient X-ray pulsar V0332+53 as observed with Integral. After the discovery of the third cyclotron…
