A catalogue of low-mass X-ray binaries in the Galaxy, LMC, and SMC (Fourth edition)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a catalogue of the low-mass X-ray binaries in the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds, which contains source name(s), coordinates, finding chart, x-ray luminosity, system parameters, and stellar parameters of the components and other characteristic properties, together with a comprehensive selection of relevant literature.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that black hole high-mass X-ray binaries with O- or B-type donor stars and relatively short orbital periods, of order oneweek to several months, may survive spiral-in, to then form Wolf-Rayet(WR) Xray binary with orbital periods of order a day to a few days.

TL;DR: In this article, the P Cygni profiles of strong resonance lines show substantial variations with orbital phase, attributed to the changing ionization state in the stellar wind caused by the X-ray emitting companion.
Scenarios for the formation of binary and millisecond pulsars – A critical assessment
TL;DR: In this paper, the evolution of high-and low-mass X-ray binaries (HMXB and LMXB) into different types of binary radio pulsars, the ‘high-mass binary pulsars’(HMBP) and ‘low-mass BPMs’ (LMBP), is discussed.
