Relativistic Iron Line Emission from the Neutron Star Low-mass X-ray Binary 4u 1636-536
We present an analysis of XMM-Newton and RXTE data from three observations of the neutron star LMXB 4U 1636-536. The X-ray spectra show clear evidence of a broad, asymmetric iron emission line extending over the energy range 4–9 keV. The line profile is consistent with relativistically broadened Fe K-α emission from the inner accretion disk. The Fe K-α line in 4U 1636-536 is considerably broade...
متن کاملX-ray Emission from the Double Neutron Star Binary B1534+12: Powered by the Pulsar Wind?
We report the detection of the double neutron star binary (DNSB) B1534+12 (= J1537+1155) with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. This DNSB (Porb = 10.1 hr) consists of the millisecond (recycled) pulsar J1537+1155A (PA = 37.9 ms) and a neutron star not detected in the radio. After the remarkable double pulsar binary J0737−3039, it is the only other DNSB detected in X-rays. We measured the flux of (2...
متن کاملXTE J2123–058: A New Neutron Star X-Ray Transient
We report on optical and RXTE observations of a new high-latitude bursting X-ray transient, XTE J2123–058. We identified the optical counterpart and discovered a 5.9573 ± 0.0016 hr periodic optical modulation, which was subsequently shown to be the same as the spectroscopic orbital period. From the absence of orbital X-ray modulation and the presence of partial optical eclipses the binary incli...
متن کاملBinary Neutron Star Mergers
We review the current status of studies of the coalescence of binary neutron star systems. We begin with a discussion of the formation channels of merging binaries and we discuss the most recent theoretical predictions for merger rates. Next, we turn to the quasi-equilibrium formalisms that are used to study binaries prior to the merger phase and to generate initial data for fully dynamical sim...
متن کاملA Binary Neutron Star GRB Model
In this paper we present the preliminary results of a model for the production of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) through the compressional heating of binary neutron stars near their last stable orbit prior to merger. Recent numerical studies of the general relativistic (GR) hydrodynamics in three spatial dimensions of close neutron star binaries (NSBs) have uncovered evidence for the compression and h...
