A NEW DYNAMICAL MODEL FOR THE BLACK HOLE BINARY LMC X-1

A NEW DYNAMICAL MODEL FOR THE BLACK HOLE BINARY LMC X-1

We present a dynamical model of the high mass X-ray binary LMC X-1 based on high-resolution optical spectroscopy and extensive optical and near-infrared photometry. From our new optical data we find an orbital period of P = 3.90917 ± 0.00005 days. We present a refined analysis of the All Sky Monitor...
