GX 5-1 and GX 17+2 with EXOSAT: New Insights in Two Z-Sources
Abstract
We found flaring branch behavior in the Z-source GX 5-1. This source also shows secular variations in the position of the ``Z'' curve in its x-ray color-color and hardness-intensity diagram. We report the detection of a new burst in GX 17+2. This burst and previous reported bursts with EXOSAT occurred when GX 17+2 was in the normal branch.
