Abstract

In this paper, we present the re-analysis of a set of RXTE-PCA observations of OAO 1657-415 during 1997 August 20-27. We found a revised timing solution which was found to fit better to the data and updated pulse frequency values accordingly. We also verified that there is a marginal correlation between the gradual spin-up (or decrease in spin-down rate) and increase in X-ray luminosity as suggested by Baykal (2000).
