... The numbers of three types of compact binaries containing accreting NSs and BHs, which are most interesting from the point of view of their observational appearances, have been calculated as a function of time: i) X-ray transient source containing a NS in an eccentric orbit around a main sequence Be-star (the observed prototype: A0535+26), ii) BH The evolution of the selected types of X-ray binaries during the first 10 million years after the starburst onset is presented in Fig. ...

При отсутствии параметра программа сначала покажет старое значение для номера следующего наблюдения, а после этого, запросит новое значение. ...

... The absolute magnitude of the RCBs in the LMC and the small number of Galactic RCBs implies that they are very rare stars. Together with statistics for related stars, the total number of hydrogen-deficient stars in the Galaxy is estimated to be about 1000. Whilst the luminosity of RCBs is similar to that of other low-mass stars as they evolve rapidly from the asymptotic RED GIANT branch to become WHITE DWARFS , their frequency is much lower. ...
