Long-term Stability of Non-thermal X-ray Modulation in the Gamma-ray Binary Ls 5039
We report on long-term stability of X-ray modulation apparently synchronized with an orbital period of 3.9 days in the γ-ray binary LS 5039. Recent observations with the Suzaku satellite in the year 2007, which covered continuously more than one orbital period, have provided us with detailed characterization of X-ray flux and spectral shape as a function of orbital phase. Motivated by the resul...
متن کاملStudy of the Spectral and Temporal Characteristics of X-ray Emission of the Gamma-ray Binary Ls 5039 with Suzaku
We report on the results from Suzaku broadband X-ray observations of the galactic binary source LS 5039. The Suzaku data, which have continuous coverage of more than one orbital period, show strong modulation of the X-ray emission at the orbital period of this TeV gamma-ray emitting system. The X-ray emission shows a minimum at orbital phase ∼ 0.1, close to the so-called superior conjunction of...
متن کاملOn the radio emitting high mass X-ray binary LS 5039
We present new optical – near–IR spectroscopic and photometric observations of the newly discovered galactic microquasar LS 5039, which indicate a classification for the mass donor in the system of O6.5V((f)). Optical spectroscopy and photometry shows no variability over a timescale of years, and we find no evidence of modulation by, or emission from the compact companion in these data. However...
متن کاملHigh-energy Γ-ray Emission from Microquasars: Ls 5039 and Ls I +61 303
The possible associations between the microquasars LS 5039 and LS I +61 303 and the EGRET sources 3EG J1824−1514 and 3EG J0241+6103 suggest that microquasars could also be sources of high-energy γ-rays. In this work, we present a detailed numerical inverse Compton (IC) model, based on a microquasar scenario, that reproduces the high-energy γ-ray spectra and variability observed by EGRET for the...
متن کاملCorrelation between the X-ray and Tev Gamma Ray Emission from an Accreting X-ray Binary
Measurements of the signal strength of TeV gamma rays from the accreting X-ray binary Cen X-3 show evidence for correlation with both the RXTE/ASM and the BATSE X-ray signal strengths. There are indications that the time scale for the variability of the gamma rays may be similar to that of X-rays and as short as a day. These features of the X-ray and TeV emission from an accreting binary show m...
