The 2015 outburst of the accretion-powered pulsar IGR J00291+5934: INTEGRAL and Swift observations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported on the discovery of the first thermonuclear burst observed from IGR J00291+5934, which lasted around 7 min and occurs at a persistent emission level corresponding to roughly 1.6% of the Eddington accretion rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

The INTEGRAL view of the pulsating hard X-ray sky: from accreting and transitional millisecond pulsars to rotation-powered pulsars and magnetars

TL;DR: In the last 25 years, a new generation of X-ray satellites imparted a significant leap forward in our knowledge of Xray pulsars as mentioned in this paper, and the discovery of accreting and transitional millisecond pulsars proved that disk accretion can spin up a neutron star to a high rotation speed.
