Discovery of spin-phase-dependent QPOs in the supercritical accretion regime from the X-ray pulsar RX J0440.9+4431

RX J0440.9+4431 is an accreting X-ray pulsar (XRP) that remained relatively unexplored until recently, when major X-ray outburst activity enabled more in-depth studies. Here, we report on the discovery of ~0.2 Hz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) from this source observed with Fermi -GBM. The appea...
