A Dragon Out of Breath? Monitoring High-velocity Outflows from the High-mass Gamma-Ray Binary LS 2883/PSR B1259–63 During the 2017–2021 Binary Cycle

Observations of the high-mass gamma-ray binary LS 2883/PSR B1259–63 with the Chandra X-ray Observatory during the 2011–2014 and 2014–2017 binary cycles have shown X-ray-emitting clumps, presumably ejected from the binary during periastron passages. These clumps traveled at projected velocities of ∼0...
