Multi-wavelength Emissions from the Millisecond Pulsar Binary Psr J1023+0038 during an Accretion Active State
Recent observations strongly suggest that the millisecond pulsar binary PSR J1023+0038 has developed an accretion disk since 2013 June. We present a multi-wavelength analysis of PSR J1023+0038, which reveals that 1) its gamma-rays suddenly brightened within a few days in June/July 2013 and has remained at a high gamma-ray state for several months; 2) both UV and X-ray fluxes have increased by r...
متن کاملNuSTAR Observations of the State Transition of Millisecond Pulsar Binary PSR
We report NuSTAR observations of the millisecond pulsar–low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) transition system PSR J1023+0038 from 2013 June and October, before and after the formation of an accretion disk around the neutron star. Between June 10 and 12, a few days to two weeks before the radio disappearance of the pulsar, the 3–79 keV X-ray spectrum was well fit by a simple power law with a photon ind...
متن کاملWhat Makes an Accretion-Powered Millisecond Pulsar?
We investigate the dependence of pulse amplitudes of accreting millisecond pulsars on the masses of the neutron stars. Because the pulsation amplitudes are suppressed as the neutron stars become more massive, the probability of detection of pulsations decreases in systems that have been accreting for a long time. However, the probability of detectable pulsations is higher in transient systems w...
متن کاملAccretion-powered Millisecond Pulsar Outbursts
The population of accretion-powered millisecond pulsars (AMSPs) has grown rapidly over the last four years, with the discovery of six new examples to bring the total sample to seven. While the first six discovered are transients active for a few weeks every two or more years, the most recently-discovered source HETE J1900.1−2455, has been active for more than 8 months. We summarise the transien...
متن کاملPSR J 1740-5340: accretion inhibited by radio–ejection in a binary millisecond pulsar in the Globular Cluster NGC 6397
We present an evolutionary scenario for the spin-up and evolution of binary millisecond pulsars, according to which the companion of the pulsar PSR J17405340 , recently discovered as a binary with orbital period of 32.5 hrs in the Globular Cluster NGC 6397, is presently in a phase of ‘radio–ejection’ mass loss from the system. The optical counterpart is a star as luminous as the cluster turnoff...
