A possible cyclotron resonance scattering feature near 0.7 keV in X1822-371

R. Iaria, T. Di Salvo, M. Matranga +9

We analyse all available X-ray observations of X1822-371 made with XMM-Newton, Chandra, Suzaku and INTEGRAL satellites. The observations were not simultaneous. The Suzaku and INTEG…

Suzaku broad-band spectrum of 4U 1705-44: Probing the Reflection component in the hard state

T. Di Salvo, R. Iaria, M. Matranga +7

Iron emission lines at 6.4-6.97 keV, identified with Kalpha radiative transitions, are among the strongest discrete features in the X-ray band. These are one of the most powerful p…

Testing Rate Dependent corrections on timing mode EPIC-pn spectra of the accreting Neutron Star GX 13+1

F. Pintore, A. Sanna, T. di Salvo +6

When the EPIC-pn instrument on board XMM-Newton is operated in Timing mode, high count rates (>100 cts/s) of bright sources may affect the calibration of the energy scale, resultin…

Chandra X-ray spectroscopy of a clear dip in GX 13+1

A. D'Aì, R. Iaria, T. Di Salvo +3

The source GX 13+1 is a persistent, bright Galactic X-ray binary hosting an accreting neutron star. It shows highly ionized absorption features, with a blueshift of 400 km s…

Discovery of periodic dips in the light curve of GX 13+1: the X-ray orbital ephemeris of the source

R. Iaria, T. Di Salvo, L. Burderi +3

The bright low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) GX 13+1 is one of the most peculiar Galactic binary systems. A periodicity of 24.27 d with a formal statistical error of 0.03 d was observed…

Testing reflection features in 4U 1705-44 with XMM-Newton, BeppoSAX and RXTE in the hard and soft state

E. Egron, T. Di Salvo, S. Motta +10

We use data of the bright atoll source 4U 1705-44 taken with XMM-Newton, BeppoSAX and RXTE both in the hard and in the soft state to perform a self-consistent study of the reflecti…
