SPECTRAL SOFTENING BETWEEN OUTBURST AND QUIESCENCE IN THE NEUTRON STAR LOW-MASS X-RAY BINARY SAX J1750.8-2900

SPECTRAL SOFTENING BETWEEN OUTBURST AND QUIESCENCE IN THE NEUTRON STAR LOW-MASS X-RAY BINARY SAX J1750.8-2900

Tracking the spectral evolution of transiently accreting neutron stars between outburst and quiescence probes relatively poorly understood accretion regimes. Such studies are challenging because they require frequent monitoring of sources with luminosities below the thresholds of current all-sky X-r...
