The “<i>K</i>‐Correction” for Irradiated Emission Lines in LMXBs: Evidence for a Massive Neutron Star in X1822−371 (V691 CrA)
We study the K-correction for the case of emission lines formed in the X-ray illuminated atmosphere of a Roche lobe filling star. We compute the K-correction as function of the mass ratio 'q' and the disc flaring angle 'alpha' using a compact binary code where the companion's Roche lobe is …
