Preliminary spectral fitting and QPO evolution in NICER observations of black hole candidate Swift J1727.8-1613
Abstract
X-ray transient Swift J1727.8-1613 was initially detected as a bright X-ray source on 2023 August 24 (GCN #34540, ATel #16205, #16206) and identified as a candidate low-mass black hole X-ray binary based through subsequent optical (ATel #16208), X-ray (ATel #16207), and radio (ATel #16211) observations.
