Spectral Modeling of the Supersoft X-Ray Source CAL87 Based on Radiative Transfer Codes

Supersoft X-ray sources (SSSs) are white dwarf (WD) binaries that radiate almost entirely below ∼1 keV. Their X-ray spectra are often complex when viewed with the X-ray grating spectrometers, where numerous emission and absorption features are intermingled and hard to separate. The absorption featur...
