Forty Years of X-Ray Binaries
In 2012 it was forty years ago that the discovery of the first X-ray binary Centaurus X-3 became known. That same year it was discovered that apart from the High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) there are also Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs), and that Cygnus X-1 is most probably a black hole. By 1975 also the new class of Be/X-ray binaries was discovered. After this it took 28 years before ESAs INTE...
متن کاملVERITAS Observations of X-ray Binaries
X-ray binaries stand as the brightest Xray sources in the galaxy, showing both variable X-ray emission and extreme flares. Some of these systems have been recently discovered to be TeV gamma-ray emitters, with the high energy emission posited as resulting from particle acceleration in relativistic jets or from shocks between pulsar and stellar winds. VERITAS, an array of four 12m imaging atmosp...
متن کاملProbing the X-ray Variability of X-ray Binaries
Kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) has been regarded as representing the Keplerian frequency at the inner disk edge in the neutron star X-ray binaries. The so-called “parallel tracks” on the plot of the kHz QPO frequency vs. X-ray flux in neutron star Xray binaries, on the other hand, show the correlation between the kHz QPO frequency and the X-ray flux on time scales from hours t...
