Serendipitous detection of a new outburst of the HMXB IGR J19294+1816 with XMM-Newton
Abstract
IGR J19294+1816 is an accreting pulsar in high-mass X-ray binary that was discovered by Integral on 31st of March 2009 (ATel #1997). Further studies using Swift/XRT data have found pulsation period of 12.45s (ATel #1998; #2002) and that it falls within the region of pulse period vs. orbital period parameter space expected for a Be X-ray binary system (ATel #2008).
