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…
