On the behavior of the black hole candidate 1E 1740.7-2942's corona based on long-term INTEGRAL database
Paulo Eduardo Stecchini, Jurandi Leão, Manuel Castro +1
One of the most straightforward ways to explain the hard X-ray spectra observed in X-ray binaries is to assume that comptonization of soft photons from the accretion disk is occurr…
An X-Ray Burst from a Magnetar Enlightening the Mechanism of Fast Radio Bursts
M. Tavani, C. Casentini, A. Ursi +60
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are short (millisecond) radio pulses originating from enigmatic sources at extragalactic distances so far lacking a detection in other energy bands. Magnet…
Broadband X-ray analysis of 1E 1740.7-2942: constraints on spin, inclination and a tentative black hole mass
Paulo E. Stecchini, Flavio D'Amico, Francisco Jablonski +2
1E 1740.7-2942 is one of the strongest hard X-ray emitters in the Galactic Centre region, believed to be a black hole in a high-mass X-ray binary system. Although extensively studi…
LECX: a cubesat experiment to detect and localize cosmic explosions in hard X rays
J. Braga, O. S. C. Durao, M. Castro +8
With the advent of the nanosat/cubesat revolution, new opportunities have appeared to develop and launch small (\ts 1000 cm), low-cost (\ts US$ 1M) experiments in…
AGILE Observations of the Gravitational-wave Source GW170817: Constraining Gamma-Ray Emission from a NS-NS Coalescence
F. Verrecchia, M. Tavani, I. Donnarumma +39
The LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected, on 2017 August 17, an exceptional gravitational-wave (GW) event temporally consistent within with the GRB 1708117A…
Tandem Swift and INTEGRAL Data to Revisit the Orbital and Superorbital Periods of 1E 1740.7-2942
Paulo Eduardo Stecchini, Manuel Castro, Francisco Jablonski +2
The black hole candidate 1E 1740.7-2942 is one of the strongest hard X-ray sources in the Galactic Center region. No counterparts in longer wavelengths have been identified for thi…
