Magnetic Fields of Accreting X–Ray Pulsars with the Rossi X–Ray Timing Explorer
Using a consistent set of models, we parameterized the X-ray spectra of all accreting pulsars in the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer database which exhibit Cyclotron Resonance Scattering Features (CRSFs, or cyclotron lines). These sources in our sample are Her X-1, 4U 0115+63, Cen X-3, 4U 1626-67, XTE J1946-274, Vela X-1, 4U 1907+09, 4U 1538-52, GX 301-2, and 4U 0352+309 (X Per). We searched for co...
متن کاملA Further Study of the Luminosity-Dependent Cyclotron Resonance Energies of the Binary X-ray Pulsar 4U 0115+63 with RXTE
The present paper reports on the RXTE observations of the binary X-ray pulsar 4U 0115+63, covering an outburst in 1999 March-April with 44 pointings. The 3−30 keV PCA spectra and the 15−50 keV HEXTE spectra were analyzed jointly for the cyclotron resonance features. When the 3−50 keV luminosity at an assumed distance of 7 kpc was in the range (5−13)×10 erg s, harmonic double cyclotron features ...
متن کامل0 Multiple Cyclotron Lines in the Spectrum of 4 U 0115 + 63
We report phase resolved spectroscopy of the transient accreting pulsar, 4U 0115+63. For the first time, more than two cylotron resonance scattering features are detected in the spectrum of an X–ray pulsar. The shape of the fundamental line appears to be complex, and this is in agreement with predictions of Monte-Carlo models. As in other pulsars, the line energies and optical depths are strong...
متن کاملThe Transient X–ray Pulsar 4u 0115+63 from Quiescence to Outburst through the Centrifugal Transition
We report on a BeppoSAX observation of the transient X–ray pulsar 4U 0115+63 close to periastron. This led to the discovery of a dramatic luminosity variation from ∼ 2×1034 erg s−1 to ∼ 5×1036 erg s−1 (factor > ∼ 250) in less than 15 hr. The variation was accompanied by only minor (if any) changes in the emitted spectrum and pulse fraction. On the contrary an observation near apastron detected ...
متن کاملObservations of accreting pulsars
We summarize five years of continuous monitoring of accretion-powered pulsars with the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) on the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Our 20–70 keV observations have determined or refined the orbital parameters of 13 binaries, discovered 5 new transient accreting pulsars, measured the pulsed flux history during outbursts of 12 transients (GRO J1744–28, 4U 01...
