We present the discovery of the orbital period of Swift J1626.6-5156. Since its discovery in 2005, the source has been monitored with Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, especially during the early stage of the outburst and into the X-ray modulating episode. Using a data span of $sim$700 days, we obtain the orbital period of the system as 132.9 days. We find that the orbit is close to a circular shape with an eccentricity 0.08, that is one of the smallest among Be/X-ray binary systems. Moreover, we find that the timescale of the X-ray modulations varied, which led to earlier suggestions of orbital periods at about a third and half of the orbital period of Swift J1626.6-5156.
SWIFT J1626.6-5156 is an X-ray pulsar that was discovered in December 2005 during an X-ray outburst. Although the X-ray data suggest that the system is a high-mass X-ray binary, very little information exists on the nature of the optical counterpart.
We have performed a timing and spectral analysis of the X-ray pulsar SWIFT J1626.6-5156 during a major X-ray outburst in order to unveil its nature and investigate its flaring activity. Epoch- and pulse-folding techniques were used to derive the spin
We analysed 13 years of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory survey data collected on the High Mass X-ray Binary IGR J18214-1318. Performing the timing analysis we detected a periodic signal of 5.42 d. From the companion star characteristics we derived
We have analyzed the Swift data relevant to the high mass X-ray binary Swift J1816.7-1613. The timing analysis of the BAT survey data unveiled a modulation at a period of P_0=118.5+/-0.8 days that we interpret as the orbital period of the X-ray binar
In the last years the hard X-ray astronomy has made a significant step forward, thanks to the monitoring of the IBIS/ISGRI telescope on board the INTEGRAL satellite and of the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) on board of the Swift observatory. This has pr
