Notes. Values are not reported for those cases where the corresponding counterpart is uncertain, has not been identified yet or was not observed during the sub-luminous accretion disk state, and also where the X-ray modes and the slope of the red noise component have not been clearly singled out. (a)Systems that have been observed to undergo a state transition. (b)Systems that have not been observed to undergo a state transition so far. (c)Optical magnitudes are not corrected for extinction and are taken from the second Gaia data release, except for XSS J12270−4859 which persisted in a rotation-powered state since the satellite launch in 2013 December. (d)All X-ray luminosities were re-computed in this work over the 0.3–79 keV energy band adopting the abundances of Wilms et al. (2000) for the absorption model, to allow a direct comparisons among the different systems. We assumed isotropic emission at the following distances: 5.5 kpc for IGR J18245−2452 (Harris 1996), 1.37 kpc for PSR J1023+0038 (Deller et al. 2015), 1.6 kpc for XSS J12270−4859 (Jennings et al. 2018), 3.8 kpc for 1RXS J154439.4−112820 (Britt et al. 2017), 2.4 kpc for 1SXPS J042749.2−670434 (Strader et al. 2016), 5.9 kpc for CXOGlb J174804.5−244641 (Lanzoni et al. 2010) and 4 kpc for J1109 (this work). The luminosities of IGR J18245−2452 and CXOGlb J174804.5−244641, for which no observations exist in the hard X-ray band during the sub-luminous accretion disk state, were obtained extrapolating the best-fitting absorbed power law model for the soft X-ray emission and assuming no spectral cut-off up to 79 keV. Uneclipsed luminosities are reported for 1SXPS J042749.2−670434. (e)The value for the simple power law model is reported for both PSR J1023+0038 and XSS J12270−4859, although evidence for an exponential cut-off was found in both systems (Torres et al. 2017; Xing et al. 2018). The value reported on the Fermi/LAT eight-year point source list is also quoted in parentheses. Uncertainties are statistical only. Gamma-ray luminosities are evaluated over the 0.1–300 GeV energy band and for the same distances as in (d). Uncertainties are statistical only. (f)Radio luminosities are evaluated at a frequency of 5 GHz and for the same distances as in (d). Upper limits are evaluated assuming a flat spectrum. (g)See also Strader et al. (2019).
