Evidence of a change in the long-term spin-down rate of the X-ray pulsar 4U 1907+09

We analysed RXTE archival observations of 4U 1907+09 between 1996 February 17 and 2002 March 6. The pulse timing analysis showed that the source stayed at almost constant period around 1998 August and then started to spin-down at a rate of (−1.887 ∓ 0.042) × 10−14 Hz s−1 which is ∼0.60 times lower t...
