The Different Fates of a Low-Mass X-ray Binary. I: Conservative Mass Transfer
G. Lavagetto, L. Burderi, F. D'Antona +3
We study the evolution of a low mass x-ray binary coupling a binary stellar evolution code with a general relativistic code that describes the behavior of the neutron star. We assu…
BeppoSAX serendipitous discovery of the X-ray pulsar SAX J1802.7-2017
G. Augello, R. Iaria, N. R. Robba +4
We report on the serendipitous discovery of a new X-ray source, SAX J1802.7-2017, ~22' away from the bright X-ray source GX 9+1, during a BeppoSAX observation of the latter source…
Disappearance of Hard X-ray Emission in the Last BeppoSAX Observation of the Z Source GX 349+2
R. Iaria, T. Di Salvo, N. R. Robba +4
We report on the results from two BeppoSAX observations of the Z source GX 349+2 performed in February 2001 and covering the broad energy range 0.12-200 keV. The light curve obtain…
The Optical Counterpart to SAX J1808.4-3658 in Quiescence: Evidence of an Active Radio Pulsar?
L. Burderi, T. Di Salvo, F. D'Antona +2
The optical counterpart of the binary millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during quiescence was detected at V = 21.5 mag by Homer et al. (2001). This star shows a 6% semi-amp…
Coupling Between Periodic and Aperiodic Variability in SAX J1808.4-3658
M. T. Menna, L. Burderi, L. Stella +2
We detect a significant broadening in the wings of the 401 Hz peak in the power spectrum of the accreting millisecond binary pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658. This feature is consistent wit…
