X-rays : burstsWe summarize the observed features of X-ray bursts and the key elements of the thermonuclear flash model of this phenomenon. We then elucidate the full range of possible burst behavior using a global analysis of the stability of nuclear burning on accreting neutron stars....
The passage of the compact object through a denser shell, which builds up outside the X ray-heated gas, produces a short burst of X rays. This creates yet another hot region leading to the repetition of bursts on a crossing time. Such behaviour may be relevant to the weak bursts ...

X-ray burst sources References in periodicals archive ? Up to now astronomers have known two classes of bursting sources of high-energy radiation in the sky, gamma-ray bursters and X-ray bursters. Gamma-ray bursters tend to burst once and not again. X-ray bursters are probably in our ...
Today the characteristics of X-ray burst phenomena is being studied extensively using a number of space-based X-ray observatories such as RXTE, BeppoSAX, Chandra, HETE-2, and XMM/Newton. More than eighty galactic sources of X-ray bursts have been identified since their initial discovery in ...

These broadband spectra permit direct comparison with the spectrum of the FRB-associated X-ray burst (FRB-X). We demonstrate that all 24 NICER and GBM bursts are very similar temporally to the FRB-X, but strikingly different spectrally. The singularity of the FRB-X burst is perhaps indicative...
