We report on the results of Swift and XMM-Newton observations of SMC X-2 during its last outburst in 2015 October, the first one since 2000. The source reached a very high luminosity ($L sim 10^{38}$ erg s$^{-1}$), which allowed us to perform a detailed analysis of its timing and spectral properties. We obtained a pulse period $P_{rm spin}$ = 2.372267(5) s and a characterization of the pulse profile also at low energies. The main spectral component is a hard ($Gamma simeq 0$) power-law model with an exponential cut-off, but at low energies we detected also a soft (with kT $simeq$ 0.15 keV) thermal component. Several emission lines can be observed at various energies. The identification of these features with the transition lines of highly ionized N, O, Ne, Si, and Fe suggests the presence of photoionized matter around the accreting source.
We report the Chandra/HRC-S and Swift/XRT observations for the 2015 outburst of the high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) pulsar in the Small Magellanic Cloud, SMC X-2. While previous studies suggested that either an O star or a Be star in the field is the h
We report on the spectral and timing properties of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934 observed by XMM-Newton and NuSTAR during its 2015 outburst. The source is in a hard state dominated at high energies by a comptonization of soft
We report on the results of the $XMM-Newton$ observation of IGR J01572-7259 during its most recent outburst in 2016 May, the first since 2008. The source reached a flux $f sim 10^{-10}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$, which allowed us to perform a detailed a
The high mass X-ray binary 4U 1901+03 was reported to have the pulse profile evolving with the X-ray luminosity and energy during its outburst in February-July 2003: the pulse peak changed from double to single along with the decreasing luminosity. W
We investigate timing and spectral characteristics of the transient X-ray pulsar 2S 1417$-$624 during its 2018 outburst with emph{NICER} follow up observations. We describe the spectra with high-energy cut-off and partial covering fraction absortion
