The X-ray spectra of Anomalous X-ray Pulsars have long been fit by smooth, empirical models such as the sum of a black-body plus a power law. These reproduce the ~0.5 to 10 keV range well, but fail at lower and higher energies, grossly…
It is possible to distinguish ``intrinsic'' absorption systems (gas clouds within the quasar environment) from ``intervening'' systems (gas clouds unrelated to the quasar phenomenon) by considering certain observational properties. We find…

The phase lag structure between the hard and soft X-ray photons observed in GRS 1915+105 and XTE J1550+564 has been said to be ``complex'' because the phase of the Quasi-Periodic Oscillation fundamental Fourier mode changes with time and…
