We revisited the BeppoSAX observation of SAX J0635+0533, suggested as a possible counterpart to the gamma-ray source 2EG J0635+0521. We have discovered a 33.8 ms pulsation from the source and derived an improved position, consistent with…
In 1996 during Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observations of SGR 1900+14, the 89-s X-ray pulsar XTE J1906+09 was discovered. As a result of monitoring campaigns of SGR 1900+14, XTE J1906+09 was also monitored regularly in 1996…
Many X-ray accreting pulsars have a soft excess below 10 keV. This feature has been detected also in faint sources and at low luminosity levels, suggesting that it is an ubiquitous phenomenon. In the case of the high luminosity pulsars (Lx…
We have presented NuSTAR and Swift observations of the newly discovered Be/X-ray pulsar eRASSU J052914.9-662446. This is the first detailed study of the temporal and spectral properties of the pulsar using 2020 observations. A coherent…
We report on the first spectral and timing characterization of the transient X-ray source 1RXS J194211.9+255552 using all available data from the Swift X-ray satellite. We used 10 years of hard X-ray data from the Burst Alert Telescope…
The results from two ASCA observations of AX J0057.4-7325 = RX J0057.3-7325 are presented. Coherent pulsations with a barycentric period of 101.45 +/- 0.07 s were discovered in the second observation. The X-ray spectrum was found to be hard…
We report on the results of the ASCA and ROSAT observations on RX J0059.2-7138, a transient X-ray pulsar in the Small Magellanic Cloud. The barycentric pulse period has been precisely determined to be 2.763221 +- 0.000004 s. The pulse shape…
We have analyzed the Swift data relevant to the high mass X-ray binary Swift J1816.7-1613. The timing analysis of the BAT survey data unveiled a modulation at a period of P_0=118.5+/-0.8 days that we interpret as the orbital period of the…
We report on the serendipitous discovery of a new X-ray source, SAX J1802.7-2017, ~22' away from the bright X-ray source GX 9+1, during a BeppoSAX observation of the latter source on 2001 September 16-20. SAX J1802.7-2017 remained…
In the beginning of 2023 the Be transient X-ray pulsar RX J0440.9+4431 underwent a fist-ever giant outburst observed from the source peaking in the beginning of February and reaching peak luminosity of $\sim 4.3\times10^{37}$ erg s$^{-1}$.…
Here we report the detection of a 626 s periodic modulation from the X-ray source 2XMM J174016.0-290337 located in the direction of the Galactic center. We present temporal and spectral analyses of archival XMM-Newton data and photometry of…
We report on a new Be/X-ray pulsar binary located in the Wing of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The strong pulsed X-ray source was discovered with the Chandra and XMM-Newton X-ray observatories. The X-ray pulse period of 1062 s is…
We report on a peculiar X-ray binary pulsar IKT1 = RXJ0047.3-7312 observed with XMM-Newton in Oct. 2000. The X-ray spectrum is described by a two-component spectrum. The hard component has a broken power-law with respective photon indices…
We report the discovery of the X-ray transient SAX J2103.5+4545 which was active from February to September 1997. The observed peak intensity of 20 mCrab (2 to 25 keV) occurred on April 11. An analysis of data obtained around the time of…
We present results from AstroSat observation of the recent outburst of GRO J2058+42, an X-ray pulsar in a Be-binary system. The source was observed on April 10, 2019 by LAXPC and SXT instruments on AstroSat during its declining phase of the…
Recently, the Galactic magnetar SGR J1935+2154 has garnered attention due to its emission of an extremely luminous radio burst, reminiscent of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). SGR J1935+2154 is one of the most active magnetars, displaying flaring…
