Astrophysics

Low mass xray binary

A close compact binary star system featuring a tiny dense neutron star beside a somewhat larger low-mass companion star. The neutron star is bluish-white and X-ray-emitting, surrounded by a bright flattened elliptical accretion disk glowing blue-white with a hotter inner region. The companion star is modest in size and warm yellow-orange to orange-red, overflowing material through a narrow gas stream toward the accretion disk. The two objects are shown in a tight paired orbital configuration. Render as clean clipart with smooth vector shapes, soft glow, and minimal detail.
