Abstract (from CDS):

We present the results of multiwavelength observations of the high-mass gamma-ray binary (HMGB) 4FGL J1405.1-6119. A pair of joint XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations taken in 2019 (sampling the gamma-ray maximum and X-ray maximum) characterize the emissiong of soft and hard X-rays. We find variability of the hydrogen column density along our line of sight, NH, and photon index, Γ, and find no evidence of pulsations in X-rays. We also refine a new best-fit orbital period to P = 13.7157 ± 0.0014 days, the first orbital phase-resolved analysis based on nearly 16 yr of Fermi-LAT observations of 4FGL J1405.1-6119 and the evolution of the spectral shape as a function of orbital phase. Finally, the X-ray and gamma-ray spectra for the phases sampled in the new X-ray observations can be interpreted in the framework of the intrabinary shock model, previously applied to HMGBs such as LS 5039.
