Interferometry and the study of binaries

Frank Verbunt

To determine the parameters (masses, orbital period) of a binary, one requires among others the inclination, which is best determined from a visual orbit. The next generation of in…

Globular Cluster X-ray Sources

Frank Verbunt, Walter H. G. Lewin

After a brief historical overview we discuss the luminous X-ray sources in globular clusters of our Galaxy. This is followed by an overview of the very luminous X-ray sources studi…

Magnetic field decay, or just period-dependent beaming?

Joeri van Leeuwen, Frank Verbunt

Several recent papers conclude that radio-pulsar magnetic fields decay on a time-scale of 10 Myr, apparently contradicting earlier results. We have implemented the methods of these…

Binary evolution and neutron stars in globular clusters

Frank Verbunt

Improved observations of globular clusters are uncovering a large number of radio pulsars and of X-ray sources. The latter include binaries in which a neutron star or a white dwarf…

X-ray sources in omega Centauri and other globular clusters

Frank Verbunt

X-ray bursts from bright sources in globular clusters of our galaxy show that at least 11 (of a total 13) of these sources are neutron stars. One of the low-luminosity X-ray source…

X-ray sources in globular clusters

Frank Verbunt

The twelve bright (Lx>10(36) erg/s) X-ray sources in the globular clusters have lower luminosities than the brightest sources in the bulge of our galaxy. The dim (Lx<10(35) erg/s)…
