The puzzling orbital period evolution of the LMXB AX J 1745 . 6 - 2901
The orbital period evolution of X-ray binaries provides fundamental clues to understanding mechanisms of angular momentum loss from these systems. We present an X-ray eclipse timing analysis of the transient low mass X-ray binary AX J1745.6-2901. This system shows full eclipses and thus is one of the few objects for which accurate orbital evolution studies using this method can be carried out. ...
متن کامل+ 54 - an Unusual High Mass X - ray Binary with a 9 . 6 Day Orbital Period but No Strong Pulsations Robin
Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer All-Sky Monitor observations of the X-ray source 4U2206+54, previously proposed to be a Be star system, show the X-ray flux to be modulated with a period of approximately 9.6 days. If the modulation is due to orbital variability then this would be one of the shortest orbital periods known for a Be star X-ray source. However, the X-ray luminosity is relatively modest ...
متن کاملThe Spectroscopic Orbital Period of Hd 45166
HD 45166 was selected as a candidate to the V Sagittae Class. It’s spectrum shows quite narrow emission lines of He, C, N, and O, possibly indicating a low inclination for the binary system. We performed high resolution and high stability Coudé spectroscopy in order to search for low amplitude radial velocity variations. The orbital period determined from the radial velocity curve is 0.357 days...
متن کاملDiscovery of a 115 Day Orbital Period in the Ultraluminous X-ray Source NGC 5408 X-1
We report the detection of a 115 day periodicity in SWIFT/XRT monitoring data from the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC 5408 X-1. Our ongoing campaign samples its X-ray flux approximately twice weekly and has now achieved a temporal baseline of ti 485 days. Periodogram analysis reveals a significant periodicity with a period of 115.5 ± 4 days. The modulation is detected with a significance ...
متن کاملThe Orbital Period of the Accreting Pulsar GX 1+4.
We report strong evidence for a approximately 304 day periodicity in the spin history of the accretion-powered pulsar GX 1+4 that is most probably associated with the orbital period of the system. We have used data from the Burst and Transient Source Experiment on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory to show a clear periodic modulation of the pulsar frequency from 1991 to date, in excellent agreem...
