Rothschild ( Institut fuer Astronomie und Astrophysik, Tuebingen, Astronomie, Max-Planck-Institut fuer extraterrestrische Physik, Garching, CASS, University of California at San Diego | Abstract: | We report on a pre-eclipse dip of the X-ray binary Her X-1 observed by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) in July 1996. We present the evolution of the spectral parameters in the 3-18 keV range with a temporal resolution of 16 s and show that the varying flux of the spectrum can be interpreted solely by a time varying column density. We also find that the lightcurve is characterized by symmetric substructures with recurrence time of a few minutes that can be successfully modeled by Gaussian profiles. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9812128 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
