We consider the problem of detecting a burst signal of unknown shape. We introduce a statistic which generalizes the excess power statistic proposed by Flanagan and Hughes and extended by Anderson et al. The statistic we propose is shown to…

IGR J06074+2205 is a poorly studied X-ray source with a Be star companion. It has been proposed to belong to the group of Be/X-ray binaries. In Be/X-ray binaries, accretion onto the neutron star occurs via the transfer of material from the…

We present a method for optimising experimental cuts in order to place the strongest constraints (upper limits) on theoretical signal models. The method relies only on signal and background expectations derived from Monte-Carlo simulations,…

This work presents an investigation of the stochastic X-ray variability from the 164 Hz accreting millisecond pulsar IGR J17062-6143, based on regular observations collected with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer between 2017…

The detection of quasi-periodic sources of gravitational waves requires the accumulation of signal-to-noise over long observation times. If not removed, Earth-motion induced Doppler modulations, and intrinsic variations of the…

Using observations of X-ray pulsar Her X-1 by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer, we report on a highly significant ($>17\sigma$) detection of the polarization signal from an accreting neutron star. The observed degree of the linear…

Context: The Crab pulsar underwent its largest timing glitch on 2017 Nov 8. The event was discovered at radio wavelengths, and was followed at soft X-ray energies by observatories, such as XPNAV and NICER. aims: This work aims to compare…

Currently, an excessive amount of event data is being obtained in four-dimensional inelastic neutron-scattering experiments. A method for automatic bin-width optimization of multidimensional histograms has been developed and recently…

For the purpose of maximum likelihood estimation of static parameters, we apply a kernel smoother to the particles in the standard SIR filter for non-linear state space models with additive Gaussian observation noise. This reduces the Monte…

We report on our monitoring of the strong-field magnetar-like pulsar PSR J1846-0258 with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) and the timing and spectral evolution during its outburst in August 2020. Phase-coherent timing…

We analyze archival Chandra HRC observations of the ultra luminous accreting pulsar M82-X2 (NuSTAR J095551+6940.8), and determine an upper limit of $< 1.7\times 10^{38}$~erg/s to its luminosity at an epoch at which it was undetected.…

We derive the initial spin period distribution of neutron stars by studying the population of young pulsars associated with supernova remnants. Our hierarchical Bayesian approach accounts for the measurement uncertainties of individual…

We report on optical and NIR observations obtained during and after the 2004 December discovery outburst of the X-ray transient and accretion-powered millisecond pulsar IGR J00291+5934. Our observations monitored the evolution of the…

Geodetic precession has been observed directly in the double-pulsar system PSR J0737-3039. Its rate has even been measured and agrees with predictions of general relativity. Very recently, the double pulsar has been detected in X-rays and…

We report on our investigation of the NuSTAR and AstroSat observations along with simultaneous NICER observations of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4$-$3658, obtained during its tenth outburst from 2022. The NuSTAR…

We report on the first focused hard X-ray view of the absorbed supergiant system IGRJ18027-2016 performed with the NuSTAR observatory. The pulsations are clearly detected with a period of $P_{spin}=139.866(1)$ s and a pulse fraction of…

The (re)analysis of data on the X-ray emitting pulsars PSR J0030+0451 and J0740+6620, as well as new results on PSR J0437-4715 and J1231-1411, are confronted with the predictions of the equation of state (EoS) models allowing for strong…

Swift J1727.8--1613 is a black hole X-ray binary newly discovered in 2023. We perform spectral analysis with simultaneous Insight-HXMT, NICER and NuSTAR observations when the source was approaching to the hard intermediate state. Such a…

We performed a comprehensive study of thermonuclear bursts from the millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4$-$3658 with XMM-Newton and NICER. We report the results from the analysis of an intense burst with NICER using a self-consistent and…

We report the discovery of a new candidate pulsating ultraluminous X-ray source (PULX) in NGC 5128 (Centaurus A). The candidate, 4XMM J132542.2-425943, is a transient source, identifiable as a clear X-ray point source for $\sim 8$ months in…
