X-Ray Transients: Outbursts, X-Ray Transients: X-Ray Flares

Scientific paper

The authors present X-ray observations of the Be/X-ray transient 4U 0115+63 taken with the OSSE instrument on board of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory which show the occurrence of a flare around May 1994. They have studied the evolution of the continuum spectrum and searched for possible changes in the pulse period during the flaring event. They also present long-term optical and infrared observations of the optical counterpart, V635 Cas, showing a marked and continuous brightening of the infrared colours after the outburst. However, the relationship between the infrared, optical and X-ray behaviour is complex and possible models will be investigated in the near future.
