We analyzed all published frequencies, nu_1 and nu_2, of the twin kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) in bright neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries. The two frequencies are well correlated but, contrary to recent suggestions,…

Kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) may represent the orbital frequencies of the innermost Keplerian orbits around accreting neutron stars. Attempts have recently been made to derive constraints…

After a long quiescence of three decades, the transient X-ray pulsar 4U 1901+03 became highly active in 2003 February. From the analysis of a large number of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer/ Proportional Counter Array (RXTE/PCA) observations of…

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 follow the timing properties of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary system 4U 1705-44 in different spectral states, as monitored by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer over about a month. We fit the power density spectra using multiple…

We analysed RXTE data of Sco X-1 which show kHz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) and the $\sim$6--8 Hz normal-branch oscillation (NBO) simultaneously. Using power spectra of 0.03--0.5 s data segments, we find that both the upper kHz QPO…

We have used INTEGRAL & RXTE data to investigate the timing properties of the source in correlation with its spectral states as defined by different positions in the colour-colour diagram. The source shows two distinct branches in the…

We present the results of a multi-Lorentzian fit to the power spectra of two kilohertz QPO sources; 4U 0614+09 and 4U 1728-34. This work was triggered by recent results of a similar fit to the black-hole candidates (BHCs) GX 339-4 and Cyg…

We present a comprehensive timing analysis on the Be/X-ray binary pulsar RX J0440.9+4431 using observations from \textit{NICER} and \textit{Insight}-HXMT during the 2022--2023 outburst. The power density spectrum (PDS) of RX J0440.9+4431…

We study the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) and the band-limited noise (BLN) in the 0.5--16 Hz range observed simultaneously on the horizontal branch (HB) and on the upper normal branch (NB) of the brightest neutron star…

We used two XMM-Newton and six Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) observations to investigate the fractional rms amplitude of the millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (mHz QPOs) in the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U…

By fitting the frequencies of simultaneous lower and upper kilohertz Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (kHz QPOs) in two prototype neutron star QPO sources (4U~1636-536 and Sco X-1), we test the predictive power of all currently proposed QPO…

Kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) are believed to originate from the orbital timescales of the inner accretion flow, reflecting the dynamics of the innermost disk regions under strong gravitational forces. Despite numerous…

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 explain the peak spacing in the power spectra of millisecond variability detected by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) in the X-ray emission from the LMXBs (Sco X-1, 4U1728-34, 4U1608-522, 4U1636-536, etc) in terms of the rotational…

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 a novel method for measuring the lags of (weak) variability components in neutron-star and black-hole low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). For this we assume that the power and cross spectra of these sources consists of a number of…

We investigate the correlation between the frequencies of the twin kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) and the neutron star (NS) spins in low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), based on the data sets of 12 sources with simultaneously…

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…

Very low frequency ({\nu} ~ 1.9 mHz) quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO) have been detected in 2 - 60 keV X-rays from 4U1700-37 using auto-correlation function analysis of RXTE archival data. No pulsar signal was detected in the data. Less…
