Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries with Strange Quark Stars [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2012 Strange quark stars (SSs) may originate from accreting neutron stars (NSs) in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). Assuming that conversion of NS matter to SSs occurs when the core density of accreting NS reaches to the density of quark deconfinement, $\sim 5 _0$, where $ _0\sim 2.7\times 10^{14}$g cm$^{-3}$ is nuclear saturation density, we investigate

The secondary stars in cataclysmic variables and low-mass X-ray binaries [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998 We critically re-examine the available data on the spectral types, masses and radii of the secondary stars in cataclysmic variables (CVs) and low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), using the new catalogue of Ritter & Kolb (1998) as a starting point. We find there are 55 reliable spectral type determinations and only 14 reliable mass determinations of CV ...

Magnetic Inclination Evolution of Accreting Neutron Stars in Intermediate/Low-mass X-Ray Binaries [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Abstract The magnetic inclination angle χ, namely the angle between the spin and magnetic axes of a neutron star, plays a vital role in its observational characteristics. However, there are few systematic investigations of its long-term evolution, especially for accreting NSs in binary systems.

Compact Stars in low-mass X-ray binaries
, 2014 We propose a model for compact stars in low-mass X-ray binaries(LMXBs) namely KS 1731-260, EXO 1745-248 and 4U 1608-52. Here we investigate the physical phenomena of a compact star in the LMXBs. Using our model, we have calculated central density, surface density, mass(M) and red-shift for the above mentioned compact stars, which is very much ...

Quark stars in Low-Mass X-ray Binaries: for and against
, 2000 It has been suggested that both X-ray bursters and millisecond radio pulsars may be strange (quark) stars, rather than neutron stars. Confirming (or rejecting) this suggestion may require knowing what role strong-field effects of general relativity play in the accretion flow of the compact X-ray source in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). We discuss the

Search for intermittent X-ray pulsations from neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries [PDF]
Publications of the Astronomical Society of Australia, 2021 AbstractWe present the results of our extensive binary orbital motion corrected pulsation search for 13 low-mass X-ray binaries. These selected sources exhibit burst oscillations in X-rays with frequencies ranging from 45 to 1 122 Hz and have a binary orbital period varying from 2.1 to 18.9 h.

Chemical abundances of secondary stars in low mass X-ray binaries [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006 AbstractLow mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) offer us an unique opportunity to study the formation processes of compact objects. Secondary stars orbiting around either a black hole or a neutron star could have captured a significant amount of the ejected matter in the supernova explosions that most likely originated the compact objects.

Spin evolution of neutron stars in transient low-mass X-ray binaries [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyABSTRACT Millisecond pulsar + helium white dwarf (MSP + He WD) binaries are thought to have descended from neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (NS LMXBs). The NSs accreted from the progenitors of the WDs and their spin periods were accordingly accelerated to the equilibrium periods of order milliseconds.
