Timing the Pulsations of the Accreting Millisecond Pulsar SAX J1808.4–3658 during Its 2019 Outburst

In this paper we present a coherent timing analysis of the 401 Hz pulsations of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during its 2019 outburst. Using observations collected with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER), we establish the pulsar spin frequency and orbit...
