Optical and X-ray Observations of Thermonuclear Bursts from GS 1826-24 during September-October 2003
Abstract
The results of optical (the RTT-150 telescope) and X-ray (the RXTE observatory) observations of the burster GS 1826-24 are presented. Emphasis was placed on analyzing the emissions during thermonuclear bursts. The results obtained allowed the size of the accretion disk in GS 1826-24 and the inclination of this binary to be estimated.
