Galactic Ultracompact X-ray Binaries: Empirical Luminosities
T. F. Cartwright, M. C. Engel, C. O. Heinke +4
Ultracompact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) are thought to have relatively simple binary evolution post-contact, leading to clear predictions of their luminosity function. We test these pr…
Galactic Ultracompact X-ray Binaries: Disk Stability and Evolution
C. O. Heinke, N. Ivanova, M. C. Engel +4
We study the mass transfer rates and disk stability conditions of ultracompact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) using empirical time-averaged X-ray luminosities from Paper I (Cartwright et a…
Optical counterparts of the nearest ultraluminous X-ray sources
Jeanette C. Gladstone, Chris Copperwheat, Craig O. Heinke +5
We present a photometric survey of the optical counterparts of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in nearby (< 5 Mpc) galaxies. Of the 33 U…
