We investigate the quality factor and RMS amplitude of the lower kHz QPOs from XTE J1701-462, a unique X-ray source which was observed in both the so-called Z and atoll states. Correcting for the frequency drift of the QPO, we show that, as…

We report the discovery ($20\sigma$) of kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) at ~ 690 Hz from the transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary EXO 1745-248. We find that this is a lower kHz QPO, and systematically study the time…
