Lack of emission lines in the optical spectra of SAX J1808.4-3658 during reflaring of the 2019 outburst

We present spectroscopy of the accreting X-ray binary and millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658. These observations are the first to be obtained during a reflaring phase. We collected spectroscopic data during the beginning of reflaring of the 2019 outburst and we compare them to previous datasets, taken at different epochs both... Show more
