A re-analysis of the optical light curves of XTE~J2123-058: the mass of the binary components and the outburst mechanism
T. Shahbaz, J. Casares
Rejected by MNRAS due to irregularites in the text. The first author is solely resposible for this.
Infrared spectroscopy of V616 Mon (=A0620--00): the accretion disc contamination
T. Shahbaz, R. M. Bandyopadhyay, P. A. Charles
We have obtained for the first time -band infrared spectra of the soft X-ray transient V616 Mon (=A0620--00). We determine the 2-sigma upper limit to the fraction of light arisi…
The rotation speed of the companion star in V395 Car (=2S0921--630)
T. Shahbaz, E. Kuulkers, P. A. Charles +3
We have obtained high resolution optical spectroscopy of the accretion disc corona source 2S0921--630 (=V395 Car) that constrains the spectral type of the companion star to be most…
The outburst radial velocity curve of X-Ray Nova Scorpii 1994 (=GRO J1655--40)
S. N. Phillips, T. Shahbaz, Ph. Podsiadlowski
We present a reanalysis of the outburst radial velocity data for X-Ray Nova Scorpii 1994. Using a model based on X-ray heating of the secondary star we suggest a more realistic tre…
