Magnetic fields of neutron stars in X-ray pulsars
Estimates of the magnetic field of neutron stars in X-ray pulsars are obtained using the hypothesis of the equilibrium period for disk and wind accretion and also from the BATSE data on timing of X-ray pulsars using the observed maximum spin-down rate. Cyclotron lines at energies ≥ 100 keV in several Be-transient are predicted for future observations.
متن کاملNeutron Stars in X-ray Pulsars and Their Magnetic Fields
Estimates of the magnetic field of neutron stars in X-ray pulsars are obtained using the hypothesis of the equilibrium period for disk and wind accretion and also from the BATSE data on timing of X-ray pulsars using the observed maximum spin-down rate. Cyclotron lines at energies ≥ 100 keV in several Be-transient are predicted for future observations. We suggest a new method of estimating dista...
متن کاملAccretion-driven millisecond X-ray pulsars
I present an overview of our current observational knowledge of the six known accretion-driven millisecond X-ray pulsars. A prominent place in this review is given to SAX J1808.4–3658; it was the first such system discovered and currently four outbursts have been observed from this source, three of which have been studied in detail using the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer satellite. This makes SAX...
متن کاملAccretion onto Fast X-ray Pulsars
The recent emergence of a new class of accretion-powered, transient, millisecond X-ray pulsars presents some difficulties for the conventional picture of accretion onto rapidly rotating magnetized neutron stars and their spin behavior during outbursts. In particular, it is unclear from the standard paradigm how these systems manage to accrete over such a wide range in Ṁ (i.e., & a factor of 50)...
متن کاملAccretion Disk Boundary Layers Around Neutron Stars: X-ray Production in Low-Mass X-ray Binaries
The boundary layer where the accretion disk meets the star is expected to be the dominant source of high-energy radiation in low-mass X-ray binaries which contain weakly magnetized accreting neutron stars. We present solutions for the structure of the boundary layer in such a system. We find that the main portion of the boundary layer gas is hot (∼> 10 K), has low density, and is radially and v...
