⋆ high energy behaviour of 4 U 1812 - 12

چکیده
The low mass X-ray binary system 4U 1812-12 was monitored with the INTEGRAL observatory in the period 2003-2004 and with BeppoSAX on April 20, 2000. We report here on the spectral and temporal analysis of both persistent and burst emission. The full data set confirms the persistent nature of this burster, and reveals the presence of emission up to 200 keV. The persistent spectrum is well described by a comptonization (CompTT) model plus a soft blackbody component. The source was observed in a hard spectral state with a 1200 keV luminosity of 2×10 ergs s and L/LEdd∼1% and no meaningful flux variation has been revealed, as also confirmed by a 2004 RXTE observation. We have also detected 4 bursts showing double peaked profiles and blackbody spectra with temperatures ranging from 1.9 to 3.1 keV.

Simultaneous BeppoSAX and Rossi X - ray Timing Explorer observations of 4 U 1812 – 12
4U 1812–12 is a faint persistent and weakly variable neutron star X-ray binary. It was observed by BeppoSAX between April 20th and 21st, 2000 in a hard spectral state with a bolometric luminosity of ∼ 2 × 10 36 ergs s −1. Its broad band energy spectrum is characterized by the presence of a hard X-ray tail extending above ∼ 100 keV. It can be represented as the sum of a dominant hard Comptonized...

During more than 3 years (August 1996–October 1999) monitoring of a 40 • × 40 • sky region around the Galac-tic Centre by the Wide Field Cameras on board BeppoSAX, a total of 8 type-I bursts have been detected from a sky position consistent with that of 4U 1812−12, a likely neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary. We present the results of a detailed study of the bursts of 4U 1812−12, about 15 years...

There exists a group of persistently faint galactic X-ray sources that, based on their location in the galaxy, high Lx/Lopt, association with X-ray bursts, and absence of low frequency Xray pulsations, are thought to be low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). We present results from Chandra observations for eight of these systems: 4U 1708–408, 2S 1711–339, KS 1739–304, SLX 1735–269, GRS 1736–297, SLX ...
