BAYIN, SS
We point out that the conclusions of a recent Letter by Yavuz et al. are based on a misunderstanding of basic perturbation theory.

Timing and X-ray spectral features of Swift J1626.6-5156
Icdem, Burcin; İNAM, SITKI ÇAĞDAŞ; Baykal, Altan (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-08-01)
In this paper, we extend the timing analysis by Baykal et al. of Swift J1626.6-5156 using RXTE-PCA observations between MJD 53724 and MJD 55113 together with a Chandra-ACIS observation on MJD 54897 with a 20-ks exposure. We also present the X-ray spectral analysis of these RXTE and Chandra observations. We find that the spin-up rate of the source is correlated with the X-ray flux. Using this correlation, we estimate the distance and surface magnetic field of the source as similar to 15 kpc and similar to 9 ...
Postglitch relaxation of the crab pulsar after its first four major glitches: The combined effects of crust cracking, formation of vortex depletion region and vortex creep
Alpar, MA; Chau, HF; Cheng, KS; Pines, D (American Astronomical Society, 1996-03-10)
Following the application of vortex creep theory (Alpar et al. 1984; Alpar et al. 1993; Chau et al. 1993) to the postglitch behavior of the Vela pulsar, we extend the model to cover the postglitch behavior of the Crab pulsar (Alpar et al. 1994). We propose that the comparatively modest (Delta Omega/Omega similar to 10(-8)) and somewhat infrequent (similar to 6 yr interglitch intervals) Crab pulsar glitches are caused by crust cracking during starquakes induced by pulsar spin-down (Ruderman 1976; Baym & Pine...
INVESTIGATING THE OPTICAL COUNTERPART CANDIDATES OF FOUR INTEGRAL SOURCES LOCALIZED WITH CHANDRA
Arabaci, Mehtap Ozbey; KALEMCİ, EMRAH; Tomsick, John A.; Halpern, Jules; Bodaghee, Arash; Chaty, Sylvain; Rodriguez, Jerome; Rahoui, Farid (American Astronomical Society, 2012-12-10)
We report on the optical spectroscopic follow-up observations of the candidate counterparts to four INTEGRAL sources: IGR J04069+5042, IGR J06552-1146, IGR J21188+4901, and IGR J22014+6034. The candidate counterparts were determined with Chandra, and the optical observations were performed with 1.5 m RTT-150 telescope (TUBITAK National Observatory, Antalya, Turkey) and 2.4 m Hiltner Telescope (MDM Observatory, Kitt Peak, Arizona). Our spectroscopic results show that one of the two candidates of IGR J04069+5...
Evidence of a change in the long-term spin-down rate of the X-ray pulsar 4U 1907+09
Baykal, Altan; Beklen, E. (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2006-07-11)
We analysed RXTE archival observations of 4U 1907+09 between 1996 February 17 and 2002 March 6. The pulse timing analysis showed that the source stayed at almost constant period around 1998 August and then started to spin-down at a rate of (-1.887 -/+ 0.042) x 10(-14) Hz s(-1) which is similar to 0.60 times lower than the long-term (similar to 15 yr) spin-down rate. Our pulse-frequency measurements for the first time resolved significant spin-down rate variations since the discovery of the source. We also p...
Comprehensive analysis of the transient X-ray pulsar MAXI J1409 619
Donmez, C. K.; Serim, Muhammed Miraç; Inam, S. C.; Sahiner, S.; Serim, D.; Baykal, Altan (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-08-01)
We probe the properties of the transient X-ray pulsar MAXI J1409-619 through RXTE and Swift follow-up observations of the outburst in 2010. We are able to phase-connect the pulse arrival times for the 25 d episode during the outburst. We suggest that either an orbital model (with P-orb similar or equal to 14.7(4) d) or a noise process due to random torque fluctuations (with S-r approximate to 1.3 x 10(-18) Hz(2) S-2 Hz(-1)) is plausible to describe the residuals of the timing solution. The frequency derivat...
