A Comparison of Broad Iron Emission Lines in Archival Data of Neutron Star Low-mass X-Ray Binaries

Reis, Rubens C.; Fabian, Andrew C.; Miller, Jon M. +2 more

Relativistic X-ray disklines have been found in multiple neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries, in close analogy with black holes across the mass scale. These lines have tremendous diagnostic power and have been used to constrain stellar radii and magnetic fields, often finding values that are consistent with independent timing techniques. Here, we…
