We present results from 170ksec long RXTE observations of LMC X-1 and LMC X-3, taken in 1996 December, where their spectra can be described by a disc black body plus an additional soft (Gamma~2.8) high-energy power-law (detected up to 50keV…
The luminous X-ray binary and black-hole candidate LMC X-1 has been observed with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) to search for quasi-periodic oscillations (QPO), previously reported in its high state. The source was observed monthly…
The black hole candidate LMC X-3 varies by a factor of four in the soft X-rays on a timescale of 200 or 100days. We have monitored LMC X-3 with RXTE in three to four week intervals starting in December 1996, obtaining a large observational…
We present the analysis of an RXTE monitoring campaign of the canonical soft state black hole candidates LMC X-1 and LMC X-3. In contrast to LMC X-1, which does not exhibit any periodic spectral changes, we find that LMC X-3 exhibits stron…
We report on observations of the two persistent black hole candidates LMC X-3 and LMCX-1 performed with \BS in October 1997. The flux of LMC X-1 was possibly measured up to 60 keV, but there is a possible confusion with PSR 0540-69. Fits…
Extragalactic black hole X-ray binaries LMC X-1 and LMC X-3 are the persistent sources, usually found in soft spectral state. We present the results from spectral and timing study of these sources using MAXI, NICER, NuSTAR and AstroSat…
We report the results of preliminary analysis of the XMM_Newton EPIC and RGS observations of the candidate black-hole binary LMC X-3 between February and June 2000. The observations covered both the soft and the hard X-ray spectral states.…
We present the results of a long-term observation campaign of the extragalactic wind-accreting black-hole X-ray binary LMC X-1, using the Proportional Counter Array on the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The observations show that LMC…
We present the first results of extragalactic black hole X-ray binaries LMC X-1 and LMC X-3 using all the archival and legacy observations by AstroSat during the period of $2016-2020$. Broadband energy spectra ($0.5-20$ keV) of both sources…
We present results from three observations with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) of LMC X-3, obtained while the source was in an extended 'low/hard' state. The data reveal a hard X-ray spectrum which is well fit by a pure power law…
The black-hole binary LMC X-3 is known to be variable on time scales of days to years. We investigate X-ray and ultraviolet variability in the system as a function of the 1.7 day binary phase using a 6.4 day observation with the Rossi X-ray…
We describe BeppoSAX observations of the black hole candidates LMC X--1 and LMC X--3 performed in Oct. 1997. Both sources can be modelled by a multicolor accretion disk spectrum, with temperature $\sim 1$ keV. However, there is some…
We report on the discovery and monitoring observations of a new galactic black hole candidate XTE J1752-223 by Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The new source appeared on the X-ray sky on October 21 2009 and was active for almost 8…
We present results from observations of persistent black hole candidates with the High Energy Transmission Gratings aboard the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The sources include LMC X-1, LMC X-3, GRS 1758-258, and Cyg X-1. Along with the…
Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of the black hole binary LMC X-3 reveal an extended very low X-ray state lasting from 2003 December 13 until 2004 March 18, unprecedented both in terms of its low luminosity (>15 times fainter than…
We report on long-term observations of the Galactic-bulge black hole candidates 1E 1740.7-2942 and GRS 1758-258 with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer. 1E 1740.7-2942 has been observed 77 times and GRS 1758-258 has been observed 82 times over…
The X-ray persistence and characteristically soft spectrum of the black hole X-ray binary LMC X-3 make this source a touchstone for penetrating studies of accretion physics. We analyze a rich, 10-year collection of optical/infrared (OIR)…
We report on X-ray monitoring observations of the transient black hole candidate (BHC) XTE J1752-223 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The source was discovered on 2009 October 23 and during its low/hard state, which lasted for…
We report results from a spectral and timing analysis of M82 X-1, one of the brightest known ultraluminous X-ray sources. Data from a new 105 ks {\it XMM-Newton} observation of M82 X-1, performed in April 2004, and of archival {\it…
The black-hole binary system LMC X-3 has been observed by virtually every X-ray mission since the inception of X-ray astronomy. Among the persistent sources, LMC X-3 is uniquely both habitually soft and highly variable. Using a fully…
