Letter to the Editor First correlation between compact object and circumstellar disk in the Be/X-ray binaries
نویسنده
چکیده
A remarkable correlation between the Hα emission line and the radio behaviour of LS I+61◦303 over its ∼4 yr modulation is discovered. The radio outburst peak is shifted by a quarter of the ∼4 yr modulat ion period (about 400 days) with respect to the equivalent width of the Hα emission line variability. The onset of the LS I+61◦303 radio outbursts varies in phase with the changes of the Hα emission line, at least during the increase of Hα equivalent width. This is the first clear correlation between the emission associated to the compact object and the Be circumstellar disk in a Be/X-ray binary system.

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...

We obtained high dispersion spectroscopy of CI Cam, the optical counterpart of XTE J0421+560, two weeks after the peak of its short outburst in 1998 April. The optical counterpart is a supergiant B[e] star that is emitting a two-component wind, a cool, low-velocity wind and a hot, high-velocity wind. The cool wind, which is the source of narrow emission lines of neutral and ionized metals, has ...

متن کاملNear IR spectroscopy of candidate B[e]/X-ray binaries
We present near IR spectra (0.8–2.5μm) of the two candidate B[e]/X-ray binary systems CI Cam/XTE J0421+560 and HD34921/1H 0521+37. The spectra of both systems show evidence for a more complex circumstellar environment than those seen in classical Be/X-ray binaries. Strong H i and He i emission is seen, confirming the presence of a dense circumstellar wind; O i, Fe ii and [Fe ii] emission in CI ...
متن کاملLetter to the Editor Multifrequency observations of XTE J0421+560/CI Cam in outburst
We report on two X-ray observations of the transient source XTE J0421+560 performed by BeppoSAX, and on a series of observations performed by the 0.7 m Teramo– Normale Telescope. Outburst peak occurrence time and duration depend on photon energy: the outburst peak is achieved first in the X-ray band, then in the optical and finally in the radio. An exponential decay law fits well the X-ray data...
