Two ~35 day clocks in Her X-1: evidence for neutron star free precession
R. Staubert, D. Klochkov, K. Postnov +3
We present evidence for the existence of two ~35 day clocks in the Her X-1/HZ Her binary system. ~35 day modulations are observed 1) in the Turn-On cycles with two on- and two off-…
The pre-outburst flare of the A 0535+26 August/September 2005 outburst
I. Caballero, A. Santangelo, P. Kretschmar +11
We study the spectral and temporal behavior of the High Mass X-ray Binary A 0535+26 during a `pre-outburst flare' which took place ~5 d before the peak of a normal (type I) outburs…
Deviations from the Flux-Recurrence Time Relationship in GS 1826-238: Potential Transient Spectral Changes
Thomas W. J. Thompson, Duncan K. Galloway, Richard E. Rothschild +1
The low-mass X-ray binary GS 1826-238 is presently unique for its consistently regular bursting behavior. In previous Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) measurements between 1997 N…
Pulse phase resolved analysis of the HMXB Cen X-3 over two binary orbits
S. Suchy, K. Pottschmidt, J. Wilms +7
We present a detailed analysis of observations of the high mass X-ray binary Cen X-3 spanning two consecutive binary orbits performed with the RXTE satellite in early March 1997. T…
The Galactic Positron Annihilation Radiation & The Propagation of Positrons in the Interstellar Medium
J. C. Higdon, R. E. Lingenfelter, R. E. Rothschild
We consider positron propagation in the interstellar medium and show that the positrons from the beta-plus decay chains of the radioactive nuclei Ni-56, Ti-44, and Al-26, produced…
Linking Jet Emission, X-ray States and Hard X-ray Tails in the Neutron Star X-ray Binary GX 17+2
S. Migliari, J. C. A. Miller-Jones, R. P. Fender +7
We present the results from simultaneous radio (Very Large Array) and X-ray (Rossi-X-ray Timing Explorer) observations of the Z-type neutron star X-ray binary GX~17+2. The aim is t…
