... XRB SEDs | ... By using RXTE to determine the spectral state of a system we intend to generate SEDs using data that may have been taken at different times but were taken at similar X-ray states. Due to its all-sky coverage and long operational time, the RXTE/ASM instrument provides unparalled information on the spectral states: an ideal jumping-off point for studying time-dependent properties of X-ray binaries. ... Blue arrows designate X-ray observation times. ...
