The INTEGRAL LMXRB Monitoring Programme
A. Paizis, T. J. -L. Courvoisier, O. Vilhu +21
Our collaboration is responsible for the study of a sample of 72 low mass X-ray binaries (LMXRB) using the INTEGRAL Core Programme data. In this paper we describe the monitoring pr…
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…
Turmoil on the accretion disk of GRO J1655-40
E. Kuulkers, J. J. M. in 't Zand, R. Cornelisse +7
During the 1996/1997 outburst of the X-ray transient GRO J1655-40 the Wide Field Cameras onboard BeppoSAX observed the system with nearly continuous coverage during some stages of…
BeppoSAX observations of the nearby low-mass X-ray binary and fast transient SAX J1819.3-2525
J. J. M. in 't Zand, E. Kuulkers, A. Bazzano +7
SAX J1819.3-2525 is a nearby X-ray transient which exhibited a fast and large X-ray outburst on Sep. 15, 1999 (Smith et al. 1999). The Wide Field Cameras and the Narrow Field Instr…
The orbital period of the recurrent X-ray transient in Terzan 6
J. J. M. in 't Zand, A. Bazzano, M Cocchi +11
Four or five new outbursts were detected of the bright X-ray transient GRS 1747-312 in the globular cluster Terzan 6 between 1996 and 1999, through monitoring campaigns with the Wi…
Discovery of type-I X-ray bursts from GRS 1741.9-2853
M. Cocchi, A. Bazzano, L. Natalucci +4
For the first time X-ray bursts have been detected from a sky position consistent with the one of GRS 1741.9-2853, a GRANAT transient source located only ~10' from the Galactic Cen…
