Magnetic fields of neutron stars in low mass X-ray binaries

Astronomical & Astrophysical Transactions, 1999
Abstract We report detailed radiation transport calculations which show that the shape of the 1–30 keV continuum spectrum of a weakly magnetic accreting neutron star depends on the strength of its magnetic field. We use this dependence to estimate the magnetic fields of several accreting neutron stars in LMXBs.

Evolution of The Spin Periods of Neutron Stars in Low Mass X-ray Binaries

Chinese Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2018
Abstract We present a numerical analysis of the spin evolution of neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries, trying to explain the discrepancy in the spin period distribution between observations of millisecond pulsars and theoretical results. In our calculations, we take account of possible effects of radiation pressure and irradiation-induced ...
