Multiwavelength observations of EXO 0748-676. II. Emission-line behavior

We present optical and ultraviolet spectra, light curves, and Doppler tomograms of the low-mass X-ray binary EXO 0748-676. Using an extensive set of 15 emission-line tomograms, we show that, along with the usual emission from the stream and "hot spot," there is extended nonaxisymmetric emi...
