Neutron Stars and Black Holes in X-ray Binaries [PDF]

, 1998
Galactic accretion driven stellar X-ray sources can be divided into groups in different ways. An important division, which covers almost all known X-ray binaries, can be made according to the mass of the donor star: high-mass X-ray binaries and low-mass X-ray binaries. Another distinction (partially overlapping with the previous one) can be made on the

High‐Performance, Air‐Stable and Eco‐Friendly Terpene‐Processed Organic Solar Cells via Solvent‐Composition‐Controlled Film Formation Kinetics

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Solvent‐composition‐controlled film formation enables high‐performance (efficiency = 18.66%) and air‐stable terpene‐processed organic solar cells. An optimized eucalyptol/tetralin ratio of 50:50 (v/v) balances molecular solvation and aggregation kinetics, producing favorable nanoscale phase separation and vertical composition gradients.

Ongoing and Post-mass-transfer Binaries: A Living Catalog and Unified Review of Binary Mass-transfer Products

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Mass transfer is arguably the most defining interaction in binary stellar systems, yet many aspects of its physics remain poorly understood, from stability to endpoints and observable products.

Atomic‐Scale Visualization of Topotactic Resistive Switching in Epitaxial La0.5Sr0.5CoOx Neuromorphic Memristors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Forming‐free epitaxial Pt/La0.5Sr0.5CoOx (LSCO)/La0.5Sr0.5MnO3 (LSMO) memristors exhibit heterogeneous and partially reversible topotactic switching involving brownmillerite (BM)‐, Grenier (GN)‐like‐, and perovskite (PV)‐like configurations. Atomic‐resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy and in situ transmission electron microscopy resolve

Low-Magnetic-Field Neutron Stars in X-ray Binaries

, 2023
In this chapter we give an overview of the properties of X-ray binary systems containing a weakly magnetized neutron star. These are old (Giga-years life-time) semi-detached binary systems containing a neutron star with a relatively weak magnetic field (less than $\sim 10^{10}$ Gauss) and a low-mass (less than $1 M_\odot$) companion star orbiting ...

Lone‐Pair‐Induced Lattice Distortion in Lead‐Free Hybrid Perovskites for High‐Performance Nanogenerators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A lead‐free tin‐based hybrid perovskite is designed in which stereochemically active lone‐pair electrons on tin distort the crystal lattice and break its symmetry. Blended into a flexible polymer, the material converts pressure into electricity at milliwatt‐scale power density and continues working far below freezing, powering a commercial wristwatch ...

Optical Spectroscopy of a Candidate O-star X-Ray Binary in M33

The Astrophysical Journal
We present new observations of a candidate O-type donor star in a high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) in M33. The candidate donor star is spatially coincident with a hard X-ray point source.

Unexpected Asymmetric Mn‐Sb Site Mixing and Reentrant Spin‐Glass State of MnSb2Te4

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MnSb2Te4 is an intrinsic magnetic topological insulator. Its properties are extraordinarily sensitive to tiny defects, making structural studies essential for understanding how magnetism and topology work together. This work shows that Mn can be unevenly distributed within the crystal and how that disorder is linked to a newly reported spin‐glass state

Photospheric Radius Expansion Thermonuclear Burst and X-Ray Reflection from the Neutron Star X-Ray Binary 4U 1702-429

The Astrophysical Journal
We perform a comprehensive study of thermonuclear bursts from the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1702–429 detected with NICER and XMM-Newton. The thermonuclear burst detected with NICER shows clear evidence of a photospheric radius expansion (PRE)

The Bimodal Distribution of Donor Stars in X-Ray Binaries

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific
Abstract The classification of X-ray binaries into high- and low-mass types has historically lacked a unified, data-driven quantitative criterion, and large-scale statistical studies of the donor star population have been limited. In this work, we address this gap by compiling data for 3964 XRBs and deriving a plentiful set of physical ...
