Title: Dust Scattering Halo of black hole binary 4U 1630-47 Observed with Chandra and APEX: Using mm and X-ray Imaging to Constrain Source and Molecular Cloud Distances Abstract: Dust scattering halos have been utilized to study spectral variations during eclipses, physical properties and distribution of dust grains in the interstellar medium (ISM), X-ray extinction, and … Continue reading "CRA Seminar – Emrah Kalemci [Host Matthew Liska]"

Title: Thermonuclear X-ray Bursts in the NICER Era Abstract: Thermonuclear X-ray bursts are sudden flashes observed from some low-mass X-ray binaries. Time-resolved spectral analysis and long-term observations have revealed that they occur due to the unstable thermonuclear burning of the accreted matter on the surface of the neutron star. They typically last a few tens of … Continue reading "CRA Seminar – Tolga Guver [Host Matthew Liska]"
