Timing and spectral variability in 2S 1417-624 observed with Insight-HXMT
We present the results of the spectral and timing analyses of the accreting X-ray pulsar, 2S 1417-624, during the 2018 and 2021 outbursts with Insight-HXMT. We find that the pulse profiles in all energy bands exhibit clear double-peaked structures at low flux states. In the 1-10 keV band, the pulse profiles evolve from double to triple peaks at a flux level of $\sim$4.1$\ \times \ 10^{-9}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$, and from triple to quadruple peaks at $\sim$6.4$\ \times \ 10^{-9}$ erg cm$^{-2}$ …

Good Morning #Canada
#HappyBirthday to Robert Norman Munsch, born June 11, 1945, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, but thankfully, he became a Canadian citizen in 1983. He has published more than 60 books in 30 languages and is a Member of the Order of Canada and Canada’s Walk of Fame. Health issues have ended his writing and public appearances, and in 2021, he was diagnosed with dementia. But his stories continue to speak to children.
