By simulating the evolution of spin periods of magnetized neutron stars which interact with their environment in binary systems,we investigate the Galactic population of high mass X-ray binaries(HMXBs) .The number of HMXBs in the Galaxy is between 190 and 240,and their birthrate is from 5.9×10-5 yr-1 to 6.3× 10-5 yr-1.Comparing the Corbet diagram(the positions of the spin periods vs.the orbital periods of HMXBs) in our model with the associated observations,we find that the stellar wind structure and the process of matter transfer are very important for understanding HMXBs.
A study of[S Ⅲ]λλ9096,9532 emitters at z=1.34 and 1.23 is presented using our deep narrow-band H2S 1(centered at 2.13μm)imaging survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South(ECDFS).We combine our data with multi-wavelength data of ECDFS to build up spectral energy distributions(SEDs)from the U to the Ks-band for emitter candidates selected with strong excess in H2S 1 Ks and derive photometric redshifts,line luminosities,stellar masses and extinction.A sample of 14[S Ⅲ]emitters are identified with H2S 1<22.8 and Ks<24.8(AB)over 381 arcmin2area,having[S Ⅲ]line luminosity L[S Ⅲ]=~1041.5 42.6erg s 1.None of the[S Ⅲ]emitters is found to have X-ray counterpart in the deepest Chandra 4 Ms observation,suggesting that they are unlikely powered by AGNs.The HST/ACS F606W and HST/WFC3 F160W images show their rest-frame UV and optical morphologies.About half of the[S Ⅲ]emitters are mergers and at least one third are disk-type galaxies.Nearly all[S Ⅲ]emitters exhibit a prominent Balmer break in their SEDs,indicating the presence of a significant post-starburst component.Taken together,our results imply that both shock heating in post-starburst and photoionization caused by young massive stars are likely to excite strong[S Ⅲ]emission lines.We conclude that the[S Ⅲ]emitters in our sample are dominated by star-forming galaxies(SFGs)with stellar mass 8.7
