Understanding X-ray irradiation in low-mass X-ray binaries directly from their light-curves
Download2018-01-01
Sivakoff, Gregory Robert, Tetarenko, Bailey E., Dubus, G., Lasota, Jean-Pierre, Heinke, Craig O.
The X-ray light curves of the recurring outbursts observed in low-mass X-ray binaries provide strong test beds for constraining (still) poorly understood disc-accretion processes. These light curves act as a powerful diagnostic to probe the physics behind the mechanisms driving mass inflow and...
