Here we present the study of the evolution of GX 339-4 over the years of observations using the Hardness Intensity Diagram (HID), i.e., the q diagram. We present an analysis of two outbursts of the source observed by the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) telescope aboard the International Space Station (ISS).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-09-15T09:36:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "black hole x-ray binary", "international space station", "hardness intensity diagram", "x-ray binary sources", "frequent x-ray outbursts" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
