The Donor of the Black-Hole X-Ray Binary MAXI J1820+070
Joanna Mikolajewska, Andrzej A. Zdziarski, Janusz Ziolkowski +2
We estimate the parameters of the donor of the accreting black-hole binary MAXI J1820+070. The measured values of the binary period, rotational and radial velocities and constraint…
A comment on the properties of the matter flow through the first Langrangian point
Janusz Ziolkowski, Andrzej A. Zdziarski
We analyse properties of the mass outflow from the Roche-lobe filling component of a semi-detached binary system. We follow the approaches published by Paczyński \& Sienkiewicz and…
The nature of the Schoenberg-Chandrasekhar limit
Janusz Ziolkowski, Andrzej A. Zdziarski
We present a comprehensive description of the Schönberg--Chandrasekhar (S--C) transition, which is an acceleration of the stellar evolution from the nuclear to the thermal time sca…
On the masses of the components of the V1387 Aql/GRS1915+105 binary system
Janusz Ziolkowski
V1387 Aql (the optical companion to the microquasar GRS1915+105) is a low mass giant. Such star consists of a degenerate, nearly isothermal helium core and a hydrogen rich envelope…
Masses of the components of the HDE 226868/Cyg X-1 binary system
Janusz Ziolkowski
Recent determination of the distance to HDE 226868/Cyg X-1 binary system (Reid et al., 2011) and more precise determination of the effective temperature of HDE 226868 (Caballero- N…
On the apparent lack of be x-ray binaries with black holes in the galaxy and in the Magellanic clouds
Janusz Ziolkowski, Krzysztof Belczynski
In the Galaxy and in the Magellanic Clouds there are 170 Be X-ray binaries known to-date. Out of those, 111 host a neutron star, and for the reminder the nature of a companion is n…
