The strength of Type-C quasi-periodic oscillations in black hole X-ray binaries correlates with the jet inclination

F. M. Vincentelli, N. Bollemeijer, A. Veledina +10

X-ray quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are a characteristic feature of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). These oscillations have been studied for decades and revealed a rich and c…

On a re-examination of neutron star cooling in transient sources -- No shallow heating required?

Martin Nava-Callejas, Yuri Cavecchi, Dany Page

Context: For the typical modeling of neutron stars cooling after an accretion episode in Low-Mass X-ray Binaries, an extra heating source of unknown physical origin, \textit{the sh…

Einstein Probe discovery of EP J171159.4-333253: an eclipsing neutron star low-mass X-ray binary with clocked bursts

Y. L. Wang, F. Coti Zelati, E. Parent +27

EP J171159.4-333253 is a new neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary discovered in outburst by the Einstein Probe (EP) on 2025 June 23, exhibiting clocked type-I X-ray bursts, eclipses…

Radiation pressure instability: from heart-beat states in black hole binary systems to Quasars and Changing-Look AGN

Agnieszka Janiuk, Bozena Czerny, Pulkit Ojha +2

Radiation-pressure instability was identified soon after the seminal classical accretion disk models of Shakura-Sunyaev and Novikov-Thorne, yet its full implications remain an acti…

Aql X-1 from dawn 'til dusk: the early rise, fast state transition and decay of its 2024 outburst

A. Marino, F. Coti Zelati, K. Alabarta +36

Transient Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs) are usually first detected by all-sky X-ray monitors when they enter new outbursts, typically at X-ray luminosities above 10…

A solution to the tension of burning on neutron stars and nuclear physics

Y. Cavecchi, D. Galloway, A. Heger +8

When neutron stars accrete matter from a companion star, this matter forms a disc around them and eventually falls on their surface. Here, the fuel can ignite into bright flashes c…
