Guessoum, N.; Jean, P.
We present an application and an improvement of the model of Jean & Guessoum (\cite{JG01}) for the production of the 2.223 MeV line resulting from the capture of neutrons in the atmosphere of the secondary in an X-ray binary system. In this model, the neutrons are produced in the accretion disk around the compact primary star and radiated in a…
