NuSTAR Analysis of the 2024 Periastron Passage of TeV Binary PSR B1259-63

NuSTAR Analysis of the 2024 Periastron Passage of TeV Binary PSR B1259-63

PSR B1259-63 is a well-studied TeV binary, with an energetic pulsar in orbit around a Be star. Using Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array observations during the 2024 passage of the pulsar through the circumstellar disk, we find the spectrum to be the most energetic (Γ = 1.5) around 27 days after p...
