资源简介:
The radii of neutron stars are now routinely measured in transient low massXray binary systems hosted in globular clusters (GCs). Only a handful of suchsystems are firmly identified, and more are needed to produce a usefully largepopulation. Most discovered using Chandra are unsuitable for detailedstudy with large area missions, due to the crowded GC fields. We devise a surveystrategy to discover new quiescent transient lowmassxraybinaries (qLMXBs) inGCs suitable for these missions. We expect to detect 23 new qLMXBs which can beused for precision NS radius measurements. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
