Si K EDGE STRUCTURE AND VARIABILITY IN GALACTIC X-RAY BINARIES

We survey the Si K edge structure in various absorbed Galactic low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) to study states of silicon in the inter- and circum-stellar medium. The bulk of these LMXBs lie toward the Galactic bulge region and all have column densities above 10 22 cm ⁻². The observations were perfo...
