Discovery of a New Phase-transient Cyclotron Line in A0535+26: Constraints on the Accretion Geometry

Discovery of a New Phase-transient Cyclotron Line in A0535+26: Constraints on the Accretion Geometry

In 2020 November, A0535+26 underwent one of its brightest outbursts, reaching nearly 12 Crab in X-ray flux. Observed by Insight-HXMT, NuSTAR, NICER, and AstroSat, this event provided valuable insights into Be/X-ray binaries. The pulse profiles evolved significantly with luminosity, transitioning fro...
