A half-a-day long thermonuclear X-ray burst from KS 1731-260
E. Kuulkers, J. J. M. in 't Zand, M. H. van Kerkwijk +7
We report on an approximately twelve hour long X-ray flare from the low-mass X-ray binary KS 1731-260. The flare has a rise time of less than 13 min and declines exponentially with…
Discovery of the X-ray burster SAX J1752.3-3138
M. Cocchi, A. Bazzano, L. Natalucci +5
During a 50 ks monitoring observation of the Galactic bulge performed in September 1999 by the Wide Field Cameras on board the BeppoSAX satellite, an X-ray burst was detected from…
A Sample of Radius-Expansion Bursters Observed by the BeppoSAX-WFCs
Massimo Cocchi, A. Bazzano, L. Natalucci +5
Since 1996 a monitoring campaign of the Galactic Bulge region has been performed by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras in the 2-28 keV band. This allowed accurate and unbiased studies…
The first outburst of SAX J1808.4-3658 revisited
J. J. M. in 't Zand, R. Cornelisse, E. Kuulkers +8
Data of the 1996 outburst of the single-known accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658, taken with the Wide Field Cameras (WFCs) on BeppoSAX, are revisited with more complete…
Gamma-Ray Imaging with the Coded Mask IBIS Telescope
A. Goldwurm, P. Goldoni, A. Gros +6
The IBIS telescope onboard INTEGRAL, the ESA gamma-ray space mission to be launched in 2002, is a soft gamma-ray (20 keV - 10 MeV) device based on a coded aperture imaging system.…
Spectral Properties of a Sample of Low Luminosity Type I X-ray Bursters
L. Natalucci
I report on a sample of new type I X-ray bursters, firstly detected with the Wide Field Cameras on board BeppoSAX and then studied with the Narrow Field Instruments on a broad spec…
