With recent and archival Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) X-ray measurements of the heavily obscured X-ray pulsar IGR J16393-4643, we carried out a pulse timing analysis to determine the orbital parameters. Assuming a circular orbit, we phase-connected data spanning over 1.5 years. The most likely orbital solution has a projected semi-major axis of 43 +- 2 lt-s and an orbital period of 3.6875 +- 0.0006 days. This implies a mass function of 6.5 +- 1.1 M_sun and confirms that this INTEGRAL source is a High Mass X-ray Binary (HMXB) system. By including eccentricity in the orbital model, we find e < 0.25 at the 2 sigma level. The 3.7 day orbital period and the previously known ~910 s pulse period place the system in the region of the Corbet diagram populated by supergiant wind accretors, and the low eccentricity is also consistent with this type of system. Finally, it should be noted that although the 3.7 day solution is the most likely one, we cannot completely rule out two other solutions with orbital periods of 50.2 and 8.1 days.
An analysis of the high-energy emission from IGR J16393-4643 (=AX J1639.0-4642) is presented using data from INTEGRAL and XMM-Newton. The source is persistent in the 20-40 keV band at an average flux of 5.1x10^-11 ergs/cm2/s, with variations in inten
The high-mass X-ray binary and accreting X-ray pulsar IGR J16393-4643 was observed by NuSTAR in the 3-79 keV energy band for a net exposure time of 50 ks. We present the results of this observation which enabled the discovery of a cyclotron resonant
Symbiotic X-ray Binaries (SyXBs) are a recently discovered subclass of Low Mass X-ray Binaries. Their growing number makes them an important evolutionary channel of X-ray Binaries. Our goal is to perform spectral analysis and classification of the pr
We present a multiwavelength study of the field containing the unidentified X-ray source AX J1639.0-4642, discovered with the ASCA observatory and recently detected with the IBIS telescope, onboard the INTEGRAL satellite, dubbed IGR J16393-4643. The
The orbital profile of the High Mass X-ray binary IGR J16393-4643 shows a dip in its X-ray intensity, which was previously interpreted as an eclipse. Unlike most eclipsing HMXBs, where the X-ray eclipses are about two orders of magnitude fainter comp
