The Iron K-shell features of MXB 1728-34 from a Simultaneous Chandra-RXTE Observation
A. D' Ai, T. Di Salvo, R. Iaria +7
We report on a simultaneous Chandra and RossiXTE observation of the low-mass X-ray binary atoll bursting source MXB 1728-34 performed on 2002 March 3-5. We fit the 1.2-35 keV conti…
Resolving the Fe xxv Triplet with Chandra in Cen X-3
R. Iaria, T. Di Salvo, N. R. Robba +3
We present the results of a 45 ks Chandra observation of the high-mass X-ray binary Cen X--3 at orbital phases between 0.13 and 0.40 (in the eclipse post-egress phases). Here we co…
The broad-band spectrum of Cyg X-2 with INTEGRAL
G. Lavagetto, T. Di Salvo, M. Falanga +7
We study the broad band (3-100 keV) spectrum of Cygnus X-2 with INTEGRAL. We find that the spectrum is well fitted by a Comptonized component with a seed-photons temperature of ~1…
Timing an Accreting Millisecond Pulsar: Measuring the Accretion Torque in IGR J00291+5934
L. Burderi, T. Di Salvo, A. Riggio +6
We present here a timing analysis of the fastest accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J00291+5934 using RXTE data taken during the outburst of December 2004. We corrected the arrival t…
Revised orbital parameters of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658
A. Papitto, M. T. Menna, L. Burderi +3
We present temporal analysis of the three outbursts of the X-ray millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 that occurred in 1998, 2000 and 2002. With a technique that uses the chi^2 obta…
A broad iron line in the Chandra/HETG spectrum of 4U 1705-44
T. Di Salvo, R. Iaria, M. Mendez +5
We present the results of a Chandra 30 ks observation of the low mass X-ray binary and atoll source 4U 1705-44. Here we concentrate on the study of discrete features in the energy…
High-Energy pulse profile of the Transient X-ray Pulsar SAX J2103.5+4545
M. Falanga, T. Di Salvo, L. Burderi +6
In two recent INTEGRAL papers, Lutovinov et al. (2003) and Blay et al. (2004) report a timing and spectral analysis of the transient Be/X-ray pulsar SAX J2103.5+4545 at high energi…
The role of General Relativity in the evolution of Low Mass X-ray Binaries
Giuseppe Lavagetto, Luciano Burderi, Francesca D'Antona +3
We study the evolution of Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) and of millisecond binary radio pulsars (MSPs), with numerical simulations that keep into account the evolution of the com…
