We present results of a monitoring campaign of the high-mass X-ray binary system 4U 1700-37/HD 153919, carried out with XMM-Newton in February 2001. The system was observed at four orbital phase intervals, covering 37% of one 3.41-day…

We analyze all of the available {\it RXTE} observations of Cyg X-3 in order to investigate the connection between the central X-ray source and its surrounding environment. The hardness--intensity diagram of Cyg X-3 displays a "shoe" shape…

The X-ray transient XTE J1719-291 was discovered with RXTE/PCA during its outburst in 2008 March, which lasted at least 46 days. Its 2-10 keV peak luminosity is 7E35 erg/s assuming a distance of 8 kpc, which classifies the system as a very…

We present an analysis of the X-ray light curves of the magnetic cataclysmic variable DP Leo using recently performed XMM-Newton EPIC and archival ROSAT PSPC observations. We determine the eclipse length at X-ray wavelengths to be 235 +-5…

The brightest Ultra-Luminous X-ray source (ULX), ESO 243-49 HLX-1, with a 0.2 - 10 keV X-ray luminosity of up to 10^42 erg s^-1, provides the strongest evidence to date for the existence of intermediate mass black holes. Although small…

(Abridged) We report on RXTE and optical/near-infrared (nIR) observations of the black hole transient GX 339-4, made over a time span of 8 months in 2002 and covering the initial rise and transition from a hard to a soft spectral state. Two…

PSR B1259-63 is a 48 ms radio pulsar in a highly eccentric 3.4 year orbit with a Be star SS 2883. Unpulsed gamma-ray, X-ray and radio emission components are observed from the binary system. It is likely that the collision of the pulsar…

In April 1999 the transient low mass X-ray binary X1658-298 resumed its strong and persistent X-ray emission after a 21-year interval of quiescence. We present RXTE data obtained soon after the reappearance, including four eclipses with a…

RXTE ASM count rates from the X-ray pulsar Her X-1 began falling consistently during the late months of 2003. The source is undergoing another state transition similar to the anomalous low state of 1999. This new event has triggered…

Results of GRANAT/ART-P observations of three X-ray pulsars in non-pulsing states are presented: 1) a statistically significant non-pulsing flux with a simple power-law spectrum was detected during the ``off''- state of Her X-1; 2) a…

We have performed a statistical study of the properties of 110 bright X-ray outbursts in 36 low-mass X-ray binary transients (LMXBTs) seen with the All-Sky Monitor (2--12 keV) on board the {\it Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer} ({\it RXTE}) in…

We explore XMM-{\it Newton} observations of the eclipsing super-soft X-ray source CAL~87 in order to map the accretion structures of the system. { Indirect imaging techniques were applied in X-ray light curves to provide eclipse maps}. The…

Using X-ray monitoring observations with the ASM on board the RXTE and the BAT on board the Swift, we are able to study the spectral state transitions occurred in about 20 bright persistent and transient black hole and neutron star…

A timing analysis of VHE gamma-ray observations of Cen X-3 taken with the University of Durham Mark 6 telescope was performed, using both Rayleigh and Bayesian statistics. Data from only 1 observation produced evidence for periodicity, in a…

XSS J12270-4859 (henceforth J12270) is the first low-mass X-ray binary to exhibit a transition, taking place at the end of 2012, from an X-ray active state to a radio pulsar state. The X-ray emission based on archival XMM-Newton…

We present 7 eclipse timings of the low mass X-ray binary EXO0748-676 obtained with the USA experiment during 1999-2000 as well as 122 eclipse timings obtained with RXTE during 1996-2000. According to our analysis, the mean orbital period…

The X-ray binary Cygnus X-3 is a highly variable X-ray source that displays a wide range of observed spectral states. One of the main states is significantly harder than the others, peaking at ~ 20 keV, with only a weak low-energy…

In Paul, Raichur and Mukherjee (2005) we had reported a spectral mode change in the X-ray binary pulsar Cen X-3 using the then available ASM light curves of Cen X-3. Being mindful of the fact that instrument calibration or other issues like…

We present an analysis of recent XMM-Newton and HST archive data of the ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 1313 X-2. Quasi-simultaneous observations taken with XMM-Newton, HST and VLT allow us to study both the X-ray light curve and its…

We analyze the ASCA spectrum of the Cen X-3 X-ray binary system in eclipse using atomic models appropriate to recombination-dominated level population kinetics in an overionized plasma. In order to estimate the wind characteristics, we…
