We present a 200 ksec observation of the High Mass X-ray Binary GX 301–2 taken in 2000 November with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer during the pre-periastron flare and the actual periastron passage of the neutron star. To model the spectrum we use

Since 1997 we have monitored Cyg X-1 on a bi-weekly timescale with simultaneous X-ray and radio observations with RXTE and the Ryle telescope. We present results from this continuing campaign such as correlations between different timing parameters (

We describe the ``Monitor e Imageador de Raios-X'' (MIRAX), an X-ray astronomy satellite mission proposed by the high energy astrophysics group at the National Institute for Space Research (INPE) in Brazil to the Brazilian Space Agency. MIRAX is an i

We discuss the design and performance of a large area (40 cm 2 ) CZT module for space-borne X-ray astronomy applications. This module is based upon the 32 mm ×32 mm CZT crossed strip detectors that have been under development at UCSD. This compact d

We have discovered extended X-ray emission from the microquasar Cyg X-3 in archival Chandra X-ray Observatory observations. A 5" wide structure lies approximately 16" to the NE from the core point source and may be extended in that direction. This an

We observed the "microquasar" GRS 1758-258 four times with Chandra. Two observations with the imaging detector of the High Resolution Camera (HRC-I) were made in 2000 September-October spanning an intermediate-to-hard spectral transition (identified

Five years of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observations of the Galactic black-hole candidates 1E 1740.7-2942 and GRS 1758-258 show a periodic modulation with amplitude 3-4% in each source at 12.73 +/- 0.05 dy and 18.45 +/- 0.10 dy, respectively

Near the end of 2001 February, the black-hole candidate (BHC) GRS 1758-258 made an abrupt transition from a standard hard (low) state to a soft state. Unlike Cyg X-1 and other BHCs, whose luminosity increases during this transition, GRS 1758-258 was

We report the detection of a nonthermal hard X-ray component from Sco X-1 based on the analysis of 20-220 keV spectra obtained with the High-Energy X-Ray Timing Experiment on board the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer satellite. We find that the addition

We have observed the black hole candidate X-ray binary GX 339-4 at radio wavelengths before, during and after the 1998 high/soft X-ray state transition. We find that the radio emission from the system is strongly correlated with the hard X-ray emissi
