Kavli Affiliate: Stavros Katsanevas | Summary:We reanalyze the results of the chargino searches at LEP (on the basis of the DELPHI 189 GeV data sample), including the possibility of complex MSSM parameters. We point out the possible differences between the complex- and real-parameter analysis. We check that the regions excluded by “standard” analyses remain generally […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edmund Bertschinger | Summary:Using data from the All-Sky Monitor aboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE), we found that the 1.5-12 keV X-ray count rate of Cyg X-1 is, on time scales from 90 seconds to at least 10 days, strongly correlated with the spectral hardness of the source in the soft state, […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edmund Bertschinger | Summary:We present a tabulation of 46 transient x-ray sources monitored with the All-Sky Monitor (ASM) on the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). They fall into four broad categories: short (~d), intermediate, and long (>500 d) duration of outbursts, and long period binary systems that flare up at periastron (e.g., Be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Edmund Bertschinger | Summary:We present light curves of a sample of "transient" sources observed with the All-Sky Monitor (ASM) of the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). The light curves extend over 3.5 years. They are presented in three groups: six neutron-star systems, eight black-hole-candidate systems, and an additional diverse set of six objects […]
