Discovery of a Second Eclipsing, ​​​​​Bursting Neutron Star Low-mass X-Ray Binary in the Globular Cluster Terzan 6

We have analyzed Chandra and Suzaku observations of the globular cluster Terzan 6, made when the recurrent transient GRS 1747–312 was in quiescence. Our analysis reveals the presence of a second eclipsing, bursting neutron star low-mass X-ray binary in the central regions of the cluster, in addition...
