Probing the Stellar Wind of the Wolf–Rayet Star in IC 10 X-1

IC 10 X-1 is an eclipsing high-mass X-ray binary containing a stellar-mass black hole (BH) and a Wolf–Rayet (WR) donor star with an orbital period of P = 34.9 hr. This binary belongs to a group of systems that can be the progenitors of gravitational-wave sources; hence understanding the dynamics of...
