Optical properties of binary x-ray sources

  • 1. Inst. for Advanced Study, Princeton, NJ

Description

X-ray properties, optical properties, and mass estimates derived from optical observations of x-ray sources known to be in binary systems are reviewed. The individual systems included are HZ Hercules/Her X-1, Cen X-3, HD 153919/3U 1700-37, HD 77581/3U 0900-40, SK 160/SMC X-1, HDE 226868/Cyg X-1, and Cyg X-3. The accuracy of mass determinations for x-ray sources is also discussed
