Common Expressions: BINARIES

Expressions Definition
Be X-ray binaries Be X-ray binaries are a class of High-mass X-ray binaries that consist of a Be star and a neutron star. The neutron star is usually in a wide highly elliptical orbit around the Be star. The Be stellar wind forms a disk confined to a plane often different from the orbital plane of the neutron star. When the neutron star passes through the Be disk, it accretes plenty of gas in a short time. As the gas falls onto the neutron star, a bright flare in hard X-rays is seen. (references)
Low-mass X-ray binaries Low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) are binary stars where one of the components is either a black hole or neutron star. The other component (donor) is usually filling its Roche lobe and therefore transfers mass to the compact star. The donor is less massive than the compact object, and can be on the main sequence, a degenerate dwarf (white dwarf), or an evolved star (red giant). Approximately one hundred LMXB:s have been detected in the Milky Way, and of these, thirteen LMXBs have been discovered in globular clusters. New data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory has revealed LMXBs in many distant galaxies. (references)
