Supergiant fast X-ray transients and their place within the high mass X-ray binary population
Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXT) are a class of HMXB that have only recently been unveiled by the wide field, high sensitivity monitoring of the Galactic Plane performed by the INTEGRAL observatory. Characterised by rapid X-ray flaring behaviour, on the order of hours, these extreme transient...
