Astrometric detection of Neutron Star Companions to High Mass X-ray Binaries
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 May 2006
Abstract
We consider the feasibility of detecting neutron star companions to High Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) using astrometric techniques, specifically for accuracies expected for the upcoming Gaia satellite. The direct determination of orbital parameters of HMXBs will increase the census of measured neutron star masses.
