Title:Flaring activity and pulse-to-pulse variability of EXO 2030+375
Abstract:EXO 2030+375 is a Be/X-ray binary showing regular "normal" outburst (every ~46 days). The last giant outburst of the source took place in 2006. Some normal outbursts of the system were occasionally monitored with the INTEGRAL observatory. The data revealed strong quasiperiodic flaring activity in the rising part of an outburst. We present the analysis of the flaring behavior of the source and compare it with similar phenomena observed in the first giant outburst of the source in 1985 and in an normal outburst of A0535+26. We also present the analysis of pulse-to-pulse spectral variability of EXO 2030+375 exhibited by the source during its 2006 giant outburst based on the INTEGRAL and RXTE data.
