Abstract: We report on a spectral-timing analysis of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary(LMXB)AqlX-1 with the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) on the International Space Station (ISS). AqlX-1 wasobserved with NICER during a dim outburst in 2017 July, collecting approximately 50 ks of good exposure. The spectral and timing properties of the source correspond to that of a (hard) extreme island state in the atoll classification. We find that the fractional amplitude of the low-frequen…
