Constraints on neutron star mass and radius in GS 1826-24 from sub-Eddington X-ray bursts
Michael Zamfir, Andrew Cumming, Duncan K. Galloway
We investigate the constraints on neutron star mass and radius in GS 1826-24 from models of lightcurves and spectral evolution of type I X-ray bursts. This source shows remarkable…
