Abstract
A review of some properties of X-ray binaries is presented. The review is concentrated mainly on low mass binaries. Their secular evolution, X-ray spectra and variability are discussed. Black-hole candidates, models of "dippers" and soft X-ray transients are presented and compared with observations.
A significance statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
A contribution statement is not available in the OpenAlex record.
Method details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Findings are not separately available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Limitations are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
Application details are not available in the OpenAlex metadata.
