High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the ultracompact LMXB pulsar 4U 1626-67 (2006)
Krauss, Miriam I., Schulz, Norbert S., Chakrabarty, Deepto, Juett, Adrienne M., Cottam, Jean
[abridged] We report results from four recent observations of the ultracompact LMXB pulsar 4U 1626-67. All the observations obtained high-resolution X-ray spectra of the system, two from the Chandra...

We present the results of six Suzaku observations of the recurrent black hole transient 4U1630-472 during its decline from outburst from February 8 to March 23 in 2006. All observations show the...
Spectral and Timing Properties of the Low-mass X-ray Binary 4U 0614+09 with XMM-Newton (2002)
Mendez, M., Cottam, Jean, Paerels, F.
4U 0614+09 is a low-mass X-ray binary with a weakly magnetized neutron star primary. It shows variability on time scales that range from years down to ~0.8 milliseconds. Before the Chandra and...
High-Resolution X-Ray Spectroscopy of the Accretion Disk Corona Source 4U 1822-37 (2001)
Cottam, Jean, Sako, Masao, Kahn, Steven M., Paerels, Frits, Liedahl, Duane A.
We present a preliminary analysis of the X-ray spectrum of the accretion disk corona source, 4U 1822-37, obtained with the High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer onboard the Chandra X-ray...
The Reflection Grating Spectrometer on board the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton Observatory is the main subject of the thesis. It was designed to provide high-throughput, high-resolution...

First XMM-Newton observations of a cataclysmic variable II: the X-ray spectrum of OY Car (2000)
Ramsay, Gavin, Cordova, France, Cottam, Jean, Mason, Keith, Much, Rudi, Osborne, Julian, ...
We present XMM-Newton X-ray spectra of the disc accreting cataclysmic variable OY Car, which were obtained during the performance verification phase of the mission. These data were taken 4 days after...
The Chandra Iron-L X-Ray Line Spectrum of Capella (2000)
Behar, Ehud, Cottam, Jean, Kahn, Steven M.
An analysis of the iron L-shell emission in the publicly available spectrum of the Capella binary system, as obtained by the High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer on board the Chandra X-ray...
