We report on a comprehensive analysis of the kilohertz (above 300 Hz) quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) detected from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 4U0614+09 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). With a much larger data…
In observations with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer we have discovered quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) near 1 kHz from 4U 1705-44, a low--mass X-ray binary with a neutron star classified as an atoll source. In six separate observations,…
We investigate the behavior of the high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in 4U 0614+091, combining timing and spectral analysis of RXTE observations. The energy spectra of the source can be described by a power law (alpha ~ 2.8)…
We study the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) in the low-mass X-ray binaries 4U 1728-34, 4U 1608-52, and Aql X-1. Each source traces out a set of nearly parallel lines in a frequency vs. X-ray count rate diagram. We find…
We analysed {\it Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer} (RXTE) data of the low-mass X-ray binary and atoll source 4U 1608-52 obtained on March 3, 1996 in which the source simultaneously showed a strong single kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillation…
In recent observations with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer we have detected two simultaneous quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) peaks in the low mass X-ray binary and atoll source 4U 1735-44. The lower and higher frequency QPOs have…
We have discovered a 7.06+-0.08 Hz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the X-ray flux of the low-luminosity low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) and atoll source 4U 1820-30. This QPO was only observable at the highest observed mass accretion rate,…
We present results of RXTE observations of the low-mass X-ray binary and atoll source 4U 1608$-$52 made over 9 days during the decline of an X-ray intensity outburst in March 1996. A fast-timing analysis shows a strong and narrow quasi…
We present new Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of the low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1608-52 during the decay of its 1998 outburst. We detect by a direct FFT method the existence of a second kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillation (kHz QPO)…
We detected millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in an XMM-Newton observation of the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53. These QPOs have been interpreted as marginally-stable burning on the neutron-star surface. At the…
We discovered a single kHz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) near 1150 Hz in the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer X-ray light curve of the low mass X-ray binary and atoll source 4U 1735-44. The rms amplitude of this peak was 2-3%, and the FWHM…
We present new results based on observations carried out with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer during the decay of an outburst of the low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) and atoll source 4U 1608-52. Our results appear to resolve, at least in 4U…
We present results of Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (XTE) observations of the atoll source 4U 1702-429 in the middle of its luminosity range. Kilohertz-range quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) were observed first as a narrow (FWHM ~7 Hz) peak…
We report the detection of quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) at ~41 mHz in the transient high-mass Be/X-ray binary pulsar 4U~0115+634 using data from the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observatory. The observations used in the present…

We present for the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636$-$53, and for the first time for any source of kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs), the two-dimensional behaviour of the fractional rms amplitude of the kHz QPOs in…
