    Dynamical constraints on the neutron star mass in EXO 0748-676
    We present Very Large Telescope (VLT) intermediate resolution spectroscopy of UY Vol, the optical counterpart of the low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) X-ray burster EXO 0748-676. By using Doppler tomography we detect narrow components within the broad HeII λ4542, λ4686 and λ5412 emission lines. The phase, velocity and narrowness of these lines are

    Discovery of the shortest recurrence time between thermonuclear X- ray bursts
    An RXTE observation of 4U 1636-536 taken on March 10th, 2009, revealed two type I X-ray bursts from this well studied neutron star low-mass X- ray binary (NS-LMXB). The recurrence time (wait time) between the two events, 5.4 minutes, is the shortest observed in any NS-LMXB. The average spectrum exhibited by both bursts was thermal. We performed
