Neutron stars in X-ray binary systems are fascinating objects that display a wide range of timing and spectral phenomena in the X-rays. Not only parameters of the neutron stars, like magnetic field strength and spin period evolve in their active binary phase, the neutron stars also affect the binary systems and their immediate surroundings in many ways. Here we discuss some aspects of the interactions of the neutron stars with their environments that are revelaed from their X-ray emission. We discuss some recent developments involving the process of accretion onto high magnetic field neutron stars: accretion stream structure and formation, shape of pulse profile and its changes with accretion torque. Various recent studies of reprocessing of X-rays in the accretion disk surface, vertical structures of the accretion disk and wind of companion star are also discussed here. The X-ray pulsars among the binary neutron stars provide excellent handle to make accurate measurement of the orbital parameters and thus also evolution of the binray orbits that take place over time scale of a fraction of a million years to tens of millions of years. The orbital period evolution of X-ray binaries have shown them to be rather complex systems. Orbital evolution of X-ray binaries can also be carried out from timing of the X-ray eclipses and there have been some surprising results in that direction, including orbital period glitches in two X-ray binaries and possible detection of the most massive circum-binary planet around a Low Mass X-ray Binary. 相似文献

Summary The various types and classes of X-ray binary are reviewed high-lighting recent results. The high mass X-ray binaries (HMXRBs) can be used to probe the nature of the mass loss from the OB star in these systems. Absorption measurements through one orbital cycle of the supergiant system X1700-37 are well modelled by a radiation driven wind and also require a gas stream trailing behind the X-ray source. In Cen X-3 the gas stream is accreted by the X-ray source via an accretion disk. Changes in the gas stream can cause the disk to thicken and the disk to obscure the X-ray source. How close the supergiant is to corotation seems to be as much a critical factor in these systems as how close it is to filling its Roche lobe. In the Be star X-ray binaries a strong correlation between the neutron stars rotation period and its orbital period has been explained as due to the neutron star being immersed in a dense, slow moving equatorial wind from the Be star. For the X-ray pulsars in the transient Be X-ray binaries a centrifugal barrier to accretion is important in determining the X-ray lightcurve and the spin evolution. The X-ray orbital modulations from the low mass X-ray binaries, LMXRBs, include eclipses by the companion and/or periodic dipping behaviour from structure at the edge of the disk. The corresponding optical modulations show a smooth sinusoidal like component and in some cases a sharp eclipse by the companion. The orbital period of the LMXRB XB1916-05 is 1% longer in the optical compared to that given by the X-ray dip period. The optical period has been interpreted as the orbital period, but this seems inconsistent with the well established view of the origin of the X-ray modulations in LMXRB. A new model is presented that assumes the X-ray dip period is the true orbital period. The 5.2 h eclipsing LMXRB XB2129+47 recently entered a low state and optical observations unexpectedly reveal an F star which is too big to fit into the binary. This is probably the first direct evidence that an X-ray binary is part of a hierarchical triple. Finally the class of X-ray binaries containing black hole candidates is reviewed focusing on the value of using X-ray signatures to identify new candidates. 相似文献

We describe the present state of massive star research seen from the viewpoint of stellar evolution, with special emphasis
on close binaries. Statistics of massive close binaries are reasonably complete for the Solar neighbourhood. We defend the
thesis that within our knowledge, many scientific results where the effects of binaries are not included, have an academic
value, but may be far from reality. In chapter I, we summarize general observations of massive stars where we focus on the
HR diagram, stellar wind mass loss rates, the stellar surface chemistry, rotation, circumstellar environments, supernovae.
Close binaries can not be studied separately from single stars and vice versa. First, the evolution of single stars is discussed
(chapter I). We refer to new calculations with updated stellar wind mass loss rate formalisms and conclusions are proposed
resulting from a comparison with representative observations. Massive binaries are considered in chapter II. Basic processes
are briefly described, i.e. the Roche lobe overflow and mass transfer, the common envelope process, the spiral-in process
in binaries with extreme mass ratio, the effects of mass accretion and the merging process, the implications of the (asymmetric)
supernova explosion of one of the components on the orbital parameters of the binary. Evolutionary computations of interacting
close binaries are discussed and general conclusions are drawn. The enormous amount of observational data of massive binaries
is summarized. We separately consider the non-evolved and evolved systems. The latter class includes the semi-detached and
contact binaries, the WR binaries, the X-ray binaries, the runaways, the single and binary pulsars. A general comparison between
theoretical evolution and observations is combined with a discussion of specially interesting binaries: the evolved binaries
HD 163181, HD 12323, HD 14633, HD 193516, HD 25638, HD 209481, Per and Sgr; the WR+OB binary V444 Cyg; the high mass X-ray binaries Vela X-1, Wray 977, Cyg X-1; the low mass X-ray binaries Her
X-1 and those with a black hole candidate; the runaway Pup, the WR+compact companion candidates Cyg X-3, HD 50896 and HD 197406. We finally propose an overall evolutionary model
of massive close binaries as a function of primary mass, mass ratio and orbital period. Chapter III deals with massive star
population synthesis with a realistic population of binaries. We discuss the massive close binary frequency, mass ratio and
period distribution, the observations that allow to constrain possible asymmetries during the supernova explosion of a massive
star. We focuss on the comparison between observed star numbers (as a function of metallicity) and theoretically predicted
numbers of stellar populations in regions of continuous star formation and in starburst regions. Special attention is given
to the O-type star/WR star/red supergiant star population, the pulsar and binary pulsar population, the supernova rates.

Most astrophysical accretion disks are likely to be warped.In X-ray binaries,the spin evolution of an accreting neutron star is critically dependent on the interaction between the neutron star magnetic field and the accretion disk.There have been extensive investigations on the accretion torque exerted by a coplanar disk that is magnetically threaded by the magnetic field lines from the neutron stars,but relevant works on warped/tilted accretion disks are still lacking.In this paper we develop a simplified twocomponent model,in which the disk is comprised of an inner coplanar part and an outer,tilted part.Based on standard assumption on the formation and evolution of the toroidal magnetic field component,we derive the dimensionless torque and show that a warped/titled disk is more likely to spin up the neutron star compared with a coplanar disk.We also discuss the possible influence of various initial parameters on the torque. 相似文献

The normal mode oscillations of thin accretion disks around black holes and other compact objects are analyzed and contrasted with those in stars. For black holes, the most robust modes are gravitationally trapped near the radius at which the radial epicyclic frequency is maximum. Their eigenfrequencies depend mainly on the mass and angular momentum of the black hole. The fundamental g-mode has recently been seen in numerical simulations of black hole accretion disks. For stars such as white dwarfs, the modes are trapped near the inner boundary (magnetospheric or stellar) of the accretion disk. Their eigenfrequencies are approximately multiples of the (Keplerian) angular velocity of the inner edge of the disk. The relevance of these modes to the high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations observed in the power spectra of accreting binaries will be discussed. In contrast to most stellar oscillations, most of these modes are unstable in the presence of viscosity (if the turbulent viscosity induced by the magnetorotational instability acts hydrodynamically). 相似文献

I review the evidence for stellar mass black holes in the Galaxy. The unique properties of the soft X-ray transient (SXTs)
have provided the first opportunity for detailed studies of the mass-losing star in low-mass X-ray binaries. The large mass
functions of these systems imply that the compact object has a mass greater than the maximum mass of a neutron star, strengthening
the case that they contain black holes. The results and techniques used are discussed. I also review the recent study of a
comparison of the luminosities of black hole and neutron star systems which has yielded compelling evidence for the existence
of event horizons. 相似文献

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 instability on the structure of the disk, and the evolution of the mass transfer rate, respectively. We report the following results: (1) The radiation pressure in the accretion disk leads to a slight increase of spin periods, and the variation of mass transfer rate caused by the neutron star irradiation can shorten the spin-down phase of evolution. (2) The calculated results of the model combining radiation pressure and irradiation show that the accretion is strongly limited by the radiation pressure in the high mass transfer phase. (3) The accreted mass and fastness parameter can affect the number of systems in the equilibrium state. 相似文献

There are remarkable similarities between the rapid X-ray variability of low-magnetic field neutron stars in low mass X-ray
binaries, and that of black holes. In particular at frequencies < 100 Hz, their power spectra can be strikingly similar. The
highest frequency phenomena (kilohertz QPOs, black hole high-frequency QPOs and neutron star hectohertz QPOs) are the ones
that show most differences, perhaps because they originate closest to the compact object. Most variability components vary
in frequency in correlation with one another, and the correlations once again are very similar across neutron stars and black
holes – some extend even to white dwarfs. Although this does not strictly require that all phenomena whose frequencies are
involved are caused by the same physics in all three source types, this does indicate that basic properties of the accretion
flow which are the same in all three source types play an important role in generating at least some of the frequencies. 相似文献

I review our understanding of the evolution of the spin periods of neutron stars in binary stellar systems, from their birth
as fast, spin-powered pulsars, through their middle life as accretion-powered pulsars, upto their recycling or “rebirth” as
spin-powered pulsars with relatively low magnetic fields and fast rotation. I discuss how the new-born neutron star is spun
down by electromagnetic and “propeller” torques, until accretion of matter from the companion star begins, and the neutron
star becomes an accretion-powered X-ray pulsar. Detailed observations of massive radio pulsar binaries like PSR 1259-63 will
yield valuable information about this phase of initial spindown. I indicate how the spin of the neutron star then evolves
under accretion torques during the subsequent phase as an accretion-powered pulsar. Finally, I describe how the neutron star
is spun up to short periods again during the subsequent phase of recycling, with the accompanying reduction in the stellar
magnetic field, the origins of which are still not completely understood. 相似文献

We present different mass ratio distributions of massive black hole(MBH)binaries due to different mechanisms involved in binary evolution. A binary system of MBHs forms after the merger of two galaxies, which has three stages: the dynamical friction stage, the stellar scattering or circumbinary disk stage, and the gravitational radiation stage. The second stage was once believed to be the "final parsec problem"(FPP) as the binary stalled at this stage because of the depletion of stars. Now, the FPP has been shown to no longer be a problem. Here we get two different mass ratio distributions of MBH binaries under two mechanisms, stellar scattering and the circumbinary disk interaction. For the circumbinary disk mechanism, we assume that the binary shrinks by interaction with a circumbinary disk and the two black holes(BHs)have different accretion rates in the simulation. We apply this simple assumption to the hierarchical coevolution model of MBHs and dark matter halos, and we find that there will be more equal-mass MBH binaries in the final coalescence for the case where the circumbinary mechanism operates. This is mainly because the secondary BH in the circumbinary disk system accretes at a higher rate than the primary one. 相似文献
