We present the results obtained by a detailed study of the extragalactic Z source, LMC X-2, using broad band Suzaku data and a large ($ \sim 750$ ksec) data set obtained with the proportional counter array (PCA) onboard RXTE. The PCA data…

In this paper, we present the first results obtained using $\sim$ 50 ks observations of the bright low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) GX 17+2 with Large Area X-ray Proportional Counter (LAXPC) onboard {\it AstroSat}. The source traced out a…

In this paper, we report the first results of the extragalactic Z-source LMC X-2 obtained using the $\sim$ 140 ks observations with {\it Large Area X-ray Proportional Counter (LAXPC)} and {\it Soft X-ray Telescope (SXT)} onboard {\it…

Z sources are bright neutron-star X-ray binaries, accreting at around the Eddington limit. We analyze the 68 RXTE observations (270 ks) of Sco-like Z source GX 17+2 made between 1999 October 3-12, covering a complete Z track. We create and…

We report the first spectro-polarimetric investigation of the bright Z-type source GX 349+2 using simultaneous observations of \textit{IXPE}, \textit{NuSTAR} and \textit{Swift/XRT}. The source exhibited significant polarization in the 2-8…

We study the spectral evolution of the Z-track source GX 17+2 using AstroSat and NICER observations taken between 2016 and 2020. The AstroSat observations cover the period when the source is in the normal branch (NB) and the flaring branch…

We present a detailed and systematic investigation of correlated spectral and timing properties of the Z source GX 349+2, using a huge amount (about 40 ks) of good quality data from September 29, 1998 to October 13, 1998, obtained with the…

We report the first X-ray polarimetric results of the neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) Z-source GX 349+2 using the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). We discovered that the X-ray source was polarized at PD = 1.1 +/-…

Although the most luminous class of neutron star low mass X-ray binaries, known as Z sources, have been well studied, their behavior is not fully understood. In particular, what causes these sources to trace out the characteristic Z-shaped…

We present the results from spectral and timing study of the Z source GX 340+0 using AstroSat's SXT and LAXPC data. During the observation the source traced out the complete Z-track, allowing for the spectral evolution study of the…

This study presents an X-ray spectropolarimetric characterisation of the Z-source GX 340+0 during the normal branch (NB) and compares it with that obtained for the horizontal branch (HB), using IXPE, NICER and NuSTAR observations. The…

We report a broadband investigation of the Z-type neutron star (NS) low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) GX 349+2 using AstroSat and NICER. AstroSat observed the source exhibiting large scale variability in its normal branch (NB) /flaring branch…

GX 339-4 was regularly monitored with RXTE during a period (in 1999) when its X-ray flux decreased significantly (from 4.2$\times 10^{-10}$ erg cm$^{-2} s^{-1}$ to 7.6$\times 10^{-12}$ erg cm$^{-2}$s$^{-1}$ in the 3--20 keV band), as the…

We report on the results of a broad band (0.1-200 keV) spectral study of Cyg X-2 using two BeppoSAX observations taken in 1996 and 1997, respectively, for a total effective on-source time of ~100 ks. The color-color (CD) and…

Using the data from the Proportional Counter Array (PCA) and the High-Energy X-ray Timing Experiment (HEXTE) on board it Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer for Z source GX 17+2, we investigate the evolution of its PCA spectra and HEXTE spectra…

We report results of a BeppoSAX (0.1-200 keV) observation of the Z-type low mass X-ray binary GX 17+2. The source was on the so-called Horizontal and Normal branches. Energy spectra were selected based on the source position in the X-ray…

We report on the results from two BeppoSAX observations of the Z source GX 349+2 performed in February 2001 and covering the broad energy range 0.12-200 keV. The light curve obtained from these observations shows a large flaring activity,…

We investigated the properties of the Z pattern of the low-mass X-ray binary GX 17+2 in the X-ray colour-colour diagrams (CDs) and hardness-intensity diagrams (HIDs), and of the power spectra as a function of position in the Z, using all…

We analyze a large collection of RXTE archive data from April 1997 to August 2003 of the bright X-ray source Scorpius X-1 in order to study the broadband spectral evolution of the source for different values of the inferred mass accretion…

Understanding the spectral evolution along the `Z'-shaped track in the hardness-intensity diagram of Z-sources, which are a class of luminous neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries, is crucial to probe accretion processes close to the neutron…
