X-ray bursters and the X-ray sources of the galactic bulge

WHG Lewin, PC Joss - Space Science Reviews, 1981 - Springer
There is a class of bright (~> 1034 ergs s-1) X-ray sources which distinguish themselves
from the massive X-ray binaries by the following characteristics:-Their star-like optical …

Photospheric radius expansion X-ray bursts as standard candles
