Here we report on Swift and Suzaku observations near the end of an outburst from the black hole transient 4U 1630-47 and Chandra observations when the source was in quiescence. 4U 1630-47 made a transition from a soft state to the hard state ~50 d after the main outburst ended. During this unusual delay, the flux continued to drop, and one Swift measurement found the source with a soft spectrum at a 2-10 keV luminosity of L = 1.07e35 erg/s for an estimated distance of 10 kpc. While such transients usually make a transition to the hard state at L/Ledd = 0.3-3%, where Ledd is the Eddington luminosity, the 4U 1630-47 spectrum remained soft at L/Ledd = 0.008/M10% (as measured in the 2-10 keV band), where M10 is the mass of the black hole in units of 10 solar masses. An estimate of the luminosity in the broader 0.5-200 keV bandpass gives L/Ledd = 0.03/M10%, which is still an order of magnitude lower than typical. We also measured an exponential decay of the X-ray flux in the hard state with an e-folding time of 3.39+/-0.06 d, which is much less than previous measurements of 12-15 d during decays by 4U 1630-47 in the soft state. With the ~100 ks Suzaku observation, we do not see evidence for a reflection component, and the 90% confidence limits on the equivalent width of a narrow iron Kalpha emission line are <40 eV for a narrow line and <100 eV for a line of any width, which is consistent with a change of geometry (either a truncated accretion disk or a change in the location of the hard X-ray source) in the hard state. Finally, we report a 0.5-8 keV luminosity upper limit of <2e32 erg/s in quiescence, which is the lowest value measured for 4U 1630-47 to date.
We present an analysis of the RXTE observations of 4U 1630-47 during its outburst of 1998. The light curve and the spectral evolution of the outburst were distinctly different from the outbursts of the same source in 1996 and in 1999. Special emphasi
We report on the detection with RXTE of variable high frequency features in the power spectra of the black hole candidate 4U 1630-47 during its 1998 outburst. We find high frequency features during the rise and the early decay of the outburst in the
Recent XMM-Newton observations of the black-hole candidate 4U 1630-47 during the 2012 outburst revealed three relativistically Doppler-shifted emission lines that were interpreted as arising from baryonic matter in the jet of this source. Here we rea
We report the results from an X-ray and near-infrared observation of the Galactic black hole binary 4U 1630--47 in the very high state, performed with {it Suzaku} and IRSF around the peak of the 2012 September-October outburst. The X-ray spectrum is
We present the X-ray spectral and timing analysis of the transient black hole X-ray binary 4U 1630-47, observed with the AstroSat, Chandra and MAXI space missions during its soft X-ray outburst in 2016. The outburst, from the rising phase until the p
