The Be/x-ray Binary Swift J1626.6−5156 as a Cyclotron Line Source
Swift J1626.6−5156 is a Be/X-ray binary that was in outburst from December 2005 until November 2008. We have examined RXTE/PCA and HEXTE spectra of three long observations of this source taken early in its outburst, when the PCA 2− 20 keV count rate was > 70 counts sPCU, as well as several combined observations from different stages of the source’s life. The spectra are best fit with an absorbe...
متن کاملThe X-ray Quiescence of Swift J195509.6+261406 (grb 070610): an Optical Bursting X-ray Binary?
We report on an ∼63 ks Chandra observation of the X-ray transient Swift J195509.6+261406 discovered as the afterglow of what was first believed to be a long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB 070610). The outburst of this source was characterized by unique optical flares on timescales of second or less, morphologically similar to the short X-ray bursts usually observed from magnetars. Our Chandra ob...
متن کاملThe Swift X-ray Telescope
The Swift Gamma-Ray Explorer is designed to make prompt multiwavelength observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) and GRB afterglows. The X-ray Telescope (XRT) enables Swift to determine GRB positions with a few arcseconds accuracy within 100 seconds of the burst onset. The XRT utilizes a mirror set built for JET-X and an XMM-Newton/EPIC MOS CCD detector to provide a sensitive broad-band (0.2-10 ...
متن کاملBinary Regression With a Misclassified Response Variable in Diabetes Data
Objectives: The categorical data analysis is very important in statistics and medical sciences. When the binary response variable is misclassified, the results of fitting the model will be biased in estimating adjusted odds ratios. The present study aimed to use a method to detect and correct misclassification error in the response variable of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), applying binary ...
متن کاملNustar Discovery of a Cyclotron Line in the Accreting X-ray Pulsar
The high-mass X-ray binary and accreting X-ray pulsar IGR J16393−4643 was observed by NuSTAR in the 3–79 keV energy band for a net exposure time of 50 ks. We present the results of this observation which enabled the discovery of a cyclotron resonant scattering feature with a centroid energy of 29.3+1.1 −1.3 keV. This allowed us to measure the magnetic field strength of the neutron star for the ...
