    First Detection of the X-ray Burster 2S 1711-339 in Quiescence and a Suggested Optical Counterpart.
    We report on a Chandra observation of the transient low-mass X-ray binary and type-I X-ray burst source 2S 1711-339 (Carpenter et al. 1977,MNRAS,179,270; Wilson...

    Improved position of the new X-ray transient XTE J1637-498
    Following the discovery of the new X-ray transient XTE J1637-498 (Atel #1699), we obtained a short (nearly 1 ksec) observation using the Swift/XRT in PC mode on...

    Indirect evidence for an active radio pulsar in SAX J1808.4-3658 during quiescence
    Millisecond radio pulsars are neutron stars that have been spun-up by the transfer of angular momentum during the low-mass X-ray binary phase. The transition...
