On Neutron Star Natal Kicks in High-mass X-Ray Binaries: Insights from Population Synthesis

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The motion of neutron stars (NSs) in the Galaxy is largely dependent on natal kicks received by the NSs during supernova explosions. Thus, the measured peculiar velocities of NS high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) provide valuable clues to natal kicks ...

Origin of young accreting neutron stars in high-mass X-ray binaries in supernova remnants [PDF]

open access: greenMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT Recently, several accreting neutron stars (NSs) in X-ray binary systems inside supernova remnants have been discovered. They represent a puzzle for the standard magnetorotational evolution of NSs, as their ages (≲105 yr) are much shorter than the expected duration of Ejector and Propeller stages preceding the onset of wind ...

Rotation of the Mass Donors in High-mass X-ray Binaries and Symbiotic Stars

open access: diamondActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2015
Our aim is to investigate the tidal interaction in High-mass X-ray Binaries and Symbiotic stars in order to determine in which objects the rotation of the mass donors is synchronized or pseudosynchronized with the orbital motion of the compact companion.

Ultra-luminous X-ray sources as neutron stars propelling and accreting at super-critical rates in high-mass X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: greenProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2018
AbstarctUltra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are off-nuclear point sources in nearby galaxies with luminosities well exceeding the Eddington limit for stellar-mass objects. It has been recognized after the discovery of pulsating ULXs (PULXs) that a fraction of these sources could be accreting neutron stars in high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) though the ...

Stellar Wind Parameters of Massive Stars in Accretion-Powered High-Mass X-Ray Binary Pulsars [PDF]

open access: goldGalaxies
The process of mass exchange between the components of High-Mass X-ray Binary (HMXB) systems with neutron stars undergoing wind-fed accretion is discussed. The X-ray luminosity of these systems allows us to evaluate the mass capture rate by the neutron star from the stellar wind of its massive companion and set limits on the relative velocity between ...

Early neutron star evolution in high-mass X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020
ABSTRACT The application of standard accretion theory to observations of X-ray binaries provides valuable insights into neutron star (NS) properties, such as their spin period and magnetic field. However, most studies concentrate on relatively old systems, where the NS is in its late propeller, accretor, or nearly spin equilibrium phase.

Optical and Infrared Study of the Obscured B[e] Supergiant High-mass X-Ray Binary IGR J16318–4848 [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2020
The supergiant high-mass X-ray binary IGR J16318–4848 was the first source detected by the INTErnational Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory satellite in 2003 and distinguishes itself by its high intrinsic absorption and B[e] phenomenon.

Magnetic Braking with MESA Evolutionary Models in the Single Star and Low-mass X-Ray Binary Regimes [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2022
Magnetic braking has a prominent role in driving the evolution of close low-mass binary systems and heavily influences the rotation rates of low-mass F- and later-type stars with convective envelopes. Several possible prescriptions that describe magnetic
