NuSTAR spectral analysis beyond 79 keV with stray light
G. Mastroserio, B. W. Grefenstette, P. Thalhammer +10
Due to the structure of the NuSTAR telescope, photons at large off-axis (> 1deg) can reach the detectors directly (stray light), without passing through the instrument optics. At t…
StrayCats II: An Updated Catalog of NuSTAR Stray Light Observations
R. M. Ludlam, B. W. Grefenstette, M. C. Brumback +8
We present an updated catalog of StrayCats (a catalog of NuSTAR stray light observations of X-ray sources) that includes nearly 18 additional months of observations. StrayCats v2 h…
Monitoring Observations of SMC X-1's Excursions (MOOSE) I: Program Description and Initial High-State Spectral Results
Kristen C. Dage, McKinley Brumback, Joey Neilsen +8
SMC X-1 has exhibited three super-orbital period excursions since the onset of X-ray monitoring beginning with RXTE's launch in 1995. NICER has recently probed a fourth observed ex…
MAXI and NuSTAR observations of the faint X-ray transient MAXI J1848-015 in the GLIMPSE-C01 Cluster
Sean N. Pike, Hitoshi Negoro, John A. Tomsick +14
We present the results of MAXI monitoring and two NuSTAR observations of the recently discovered faint X-ray transient MAXI J1848-015. Analysis of the MAXI light-curve shows that t…
Extending the baseline for SMC X-1's spin and orbital behavior with NuSTAR stray light
McKinley C. Brumback, B. W. Grefenstette, D. J. K. Buisson +10
StrayCats, the catalog of NuSTAR stray light observations, contains data from bright X-ray sources that fall within crowded source regions. These observations offer unique addition…
