Gamma-Ray Emission from X-Ray Binaries
We summarize the current observational picture regarding high-energy emission from Galactic X-ray binaries, reviewing the results of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory mission. We speculate on the prospects for the GLAST era.
متن کاملGamma-ray bursts from X-ray binaries
A weakly magnetized (∼ 107G) neutron star, slowly spun up by accretion in an X-ray binary, crosses the instability boundary for r-mode instability at P=1–2 msec. The amplitude of the oscillation, which initially increases only at the spinup time scale, is secularly unstable due to the negative temperature dependence of the viscosity in neutron star matter, and diverges after a few hundred years...
متن کاملGamma-ray emission from Wolf-Rayet binaries
In the colliding wind region of early-type binaries, electrons can be accelerated up to relativistic energies displaying power-law spectra, as demonstrated by the detection of non-thermal radio emission from several WR+OB systems. The particle acceleration region, located between the stars, is exposed to strong photon fields in such a way that inverse Compton cooling of the electrons could resu...
متن کاملHard X-ray Emission From Low Mass X-ray Binaries
We report on Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of four type I X-ray bursters; namely 1E1724– 3045, GS1826–238, SLX1735–269 and KS1731-260. The first three were in a low state, with 1-200 keV Xray luminosities in the range ∼ 0.05−0.1 LEdd (LEdd: Eddington luminosity for a neutron star = 2.5×10 38 ergs s), whereas KS1731-260 was in a high state with a luminosity ∼ 0.35 LEdd. The low state ...
متن کاملX-ray emission from black-hole binaries
The properties of X-ray emission from accreting black holes are reviewed. The contemporary observational picture and current status of theoretical understanding of accretion and formation of X-ray radiation in the vicinity of the compact object are equally in the focus of this chapter. The emphasis is made primarily on common properties and trends rather than on peculiarities of individual obje...
