X-Ray Light Curve of GRO J1744-28 observed with RXTE/PCA on day 163 of 1996 (June 11)
|
X-ray light curve of GRO J1744-28 observed with RXTE/PCA.
The source was observed three times on June 11 1996 (UT).
Each observation was done at #1: 14:26-15:26,
#2:17:39-18:39, and #3:20:51-21:41, respectively.
Bin width of each data is 1 second.
These observation was done with 5 PCU's.
These light curves include background counts of roughly 100-150
counts/sec.

Power Spectrum of GRO J1744-28 on day 163 (June 11, 1996)
#1
|
Power spectrum of GRO J1744-28 observed with RXTE/PCA
on day 163 (June 11, 1996).
These power spectra are ensemble averages of 16, 30, and 19 spectra, respectively,
each of which is calculated from 128 seconds continuous data
in 0.125 second bin. X-axis represents wave number (WN).
Frequency of each WN is given as WN/128 (Hz). Peak at WN=274
(2.14Hz) corresponds to the coherent pulsation.
