We present the discovery of a slowly-evolving, extragalactic radio transient, FIRST J141918.9+394036, identified by comparing a catalog of radio sources in nearby galaxies against new observations from the Very Large Array Sky Survey.…

Obtaining simultaneous radio and X-ray data during the outburst decay of soft X-ray transients is a potentially important tool to study the disc - jet connection. Here we report results of the analysis of (nearly) simultaneous radio (VLA or…

The discovery is reported of emission features in the X-ray spectrum of GRO J1655-40 obtained using Rossi-XTE on 1997, Feb 26. The features have been fitted firstly by two Gaussian lines, which in four spectra have average energies of…

The nature of the long period radio transient GLEAM-X J162759.5$-$523504.3 (GLEAM-X J1627 for short) is discussed. We try to understand both its radio emission and pulsation in the neutron star scenario, as an alternative to the white dwarf…

Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) are a subclass of pulsars first identified in 2006 that are detected only in searches for single pulses and not through their time averaged emission. Here, we present the results of observations of 19 RRATs…

GLEAM-X J1627-52 was discovered as a periodic (~18 min) radio signal over a duration of three months in 2018. It is an enigmatic example of a growing population of 'long-period radio transients' consistent with Galactic origins. Their…

Rotating radio transients (RRATs), loosely defined as objects that are discovered through only their single pulses, are sporadic pulsars that have a wide range of emission properties. For many of them, we must measure their periods and…

RX J0720.4-3125 is the third brightest neutron star in the soft X-ray sky and has been a source of mystery since its discovery, as its long 8-s period separates it from the population of typical radio pulsars. Three models were proposed for…

We perform phase-resolved spectroscopy of the accreting millisecond pulsar, SAX J1808.4-3658, during the slow-decay phase of the 2002 outburst. Simple phenomenological fits to RXTE PCA data reveal a pulsation in the iron line at the spin…

Recent timing analysis reveals that the orbital period of the first discovered accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 is increasing at a rate $\dot{P}_{\rm orb}=(3.89\pm0.15)\times 10^{-12}~\rm s\,s^{-1}$, which is at least one order…

An evolutionary scenario to explain the transient nature and short total duration of the X-ray burst of SAX J1808.4 -- 3658 is proposed. An optical companion of the neutron star (a ``turn-off'' Main - Sequence star) fills its Roche lobe at…

We studied possible evolution of the rotational period and the magnetic field of the X-ray source RX J0720.4-3125 assuming this source to be an isolated neutron star accreting from the interstellar medium. Magnetic field of the source is…

Supergiant fast X-ray transients are wind-fed binaries hosting neutron star accretors, which display a peculiar variability in the X-ray domain. Different models have been proposed to explain this variability and the strength of the compact…

Nearly all fast radio RRAT-type transients that are pulsars with rare pulses have been previously detected using decimetre wavelengths. We present here 34 transients detected at metre wavelengths in our daily monitoring at declinations -9o…

We present the results of a search for transient radio bursts of between 0.125 and 32 millisecond duration in two archival pulsar surveys of intermediate galactic latitudes with the Parkes multibeam receiver. Fourteen new neutron stars have…

We derive the second and most stringent limit to date of the X-ray/radio flux ratio (F_x/F_R) for the radio bursts associated with the recently identified source class, the Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs). We analyze 20.1 hr of \rxte/PCA…

PSR J0108-1431 is a nearby, 170 Myr old, very faint radio pulsar near the "pulsar death line" in the P-Pdot diagram. We observed the pulsar field with the Chandra X-ray Observatory and detected a point source (53 counts in a 30 ks exposure,…

We present 1.25 GHz observations of the rotating radio transient (RRAT) J2325-0530, conducted with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). Approximately 60% of detected single pulses occur in clusters of 2 to 5…

Long-period radio transients (LPTs) are a newly discovered class of radio emitters with periods ranging from minutes to hours. The astrophysical nature remains undetermined, particularly of LPTs with no detectable companions. We report the…

We present the discovery of a 421 s long period radio transient (LPT) using the CHIME telescope, CHIME J0630+25. The source is localized to RA=06:30:38.4$\pm1'$ Dec=25:26:24$\pm1'$ using voltage data acquired with the CHIME baseband system.…
