Studying temporal variability of GRS1739-278 during the 2014 outburst
We report a discovery of low-frequency quasi periodic oscillation at 0.3-0.7
Hz in the power spectra of the accreting black hole GRS1739-278 in the
hard-intermediate state during its 2014 outburst based on the
and Swift/XRT data. The QPO frequency strongly evolved with the source flux
during the NuSTAR observation. The source spectrum became softer with rising
QPO frequency and simultaneous increasing of the power-law index and decreasing
of the cut-off energy. In the power spectrum, a prominent harmonic is clearly
seen together with the main QPO peak. The fluxes in the soft and the hard X-ray
bands are coherent, however, the coherence drops for the energy bands separated
by larger gaps. The phase-lags are generally positive (hard) in the 0.1-3 Hz
frequency range, and negative below 0.1 Hz. The accretion disc inner radius
estimated with the relativistic reflection spectral model appears to be . In the framework of the relativistic precession model, in
order to satisfy the constraints from the observed QPO frequency and the
accretion disc truncation radius, a massive black hole with M is required.Comment: 15 pages, 12 figures; accepted for publication in MNRA
Study of the X-ray Pulsar IGR J21343+4738 based on NuSTAR, Swift, and SRG data
We present the results of our study of the X-ray pulsar IGR J21343+4738 based
on NuSTAR, Swift, and SRG observations in the wide energy range 0.3 - 79 keV.
The absence of absorption features in the energy spectra of the source, both
averaged and phase-resolved ones, has allowed us to estimate the upper and
lower limits on the magnetic field of the neutron star in the binary system,
G, respectively. The spectral
and timing analyses have shown that IGR J21343+4738 has all properties of a
quasi-persistent X-ray pulsar with a pulsation period of s and
a luminosity erg s. The analysis of the
long-term variability of the object in X-rays has confirmed the possible
orbital period of the binary system days previously detected in the
optical range.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl
Additional spectroscopic redshift measurements for galaxy clusters from the First Planck Catalogue
We present the results of spectroscopic redshift measurements for the galaxy
clusters from the first all-sky Planck catalogue of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich
sources, that have been mostly identified by means of the optical observations
performed previously by our team (Planck Collaboration, 2015a). The data on 13
galaxy clusters at redshifts from z=~0.2 to z=~0.8, including the improved
identification and redshift measurement for the cluster PSZ1 G141.73+14.22 at
z=0.828, are provided. The measurements were done using the data from
Russian-Turkish 1.5-m telescope (RTT-150), 2.2-m Calar Alto Observatory
telescope, and 6-m SAO RAS telescope (Bolshoy Teleskop Azimutalnyi, BTA).Comment: published in Astronomy Letter
Clinical and epidemiological characteristics of outbreaks of acute intestinal diarrheal infections
Group carried out epidemiological investigation of the incidence of acute intestinal infections of unknown etiology. Analysis of long-term dynamics of the incidence of acute enteric infections, the population of the city of Rybinsk in 2002 – 2006 he was shown on the epidemiological significance of these infections on the analyzed area. Specific factors of transmission of enteric pathogens on the basis of analysis of existing materials have not been established, but the analysis of risk factors can be said about the dominance of food factor in the transmission of the epidemic process of acute intestinal infections. In order to identify the etiology of acute intestinal infections should be more widely applied in practice techniques for the detection of viral agents in epidemiological investigations
