Abstract
We present the timing analysis of the intermediate polar TX Col in the X-ray band using the observations made by Chandra, Swift, and Suzaku during the years 2000, 2007, and 2009, respectively. The spin, orbital, and beat periods derived from these data are consistent with the earlier findings. We found that the spin modulation was dominant during the Chandra observation, whereas both orbital and beat modulations were dominant during the Swift and Suzaku observations. These findings and past X-ray observations indicate that TX Col is changing its accretion geometry from disc dominance to stream dominance and vice versa.
