Joint NICER+IXPE pulse-profile modeling of SRGA J144459.2-604207 favors large neutron-star mass and radius with two independent hotspots but shows strong sensitivity to joint-analysis methodology.
Radio precedes X-ray Compton luminosity by ~3 days in the rising hard state but lags by ~8 days in the decaying hard state of GX 339-4, with inner magnetic field strength estimated from accretion rate and truncation radius accounting for both.
XSPECT observations of two soft X-ray transients during outburst decay reveal superburst evolution with cooling blackbody emission and a flux-dependent hardening of Comptonized spectra.
