THE ACCRETION DISK CORONA AND DISK ATMOSPHERE OF 4U 1624–490 AS VIEWED BY THE CHANDRA-HIGH ENERGY TRANSMISSION GRATING SPECTROMETER

We present a detailed spectral study (photoionization modeling and variability) of the "Big Dipper" 4U 1624–490 based on a Chandra-High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) observation over the ~76 ks binary orbit of 4U 1624–490 . While the continuum spectrum can be modeled us...
