X-ray astronomy — X rays start at 0.008 nm and extend across the electromagnetic spectrum to 8 nm, over which the Earth s atmosphere is opaque. X ray astronomy is an observational branch of astronomy which deals with the study of X ray observation and detection… … Wikipedia
X-ray binary — Artist s impression of an X ray Binary X ray binaries are a class of binary stars that are luminous in X rays. The X rays are produced by matter falling from one component, called the donor (usually a relatively normal star) to the other… … Wikipedia
X-ray source — ▪ astronomy in astronomy, any of a class of cosmic objects that emit radiation at X ray wavelength. Because the Earth s atmosphere absorbs X rays (X ray) very efficiently, X ray telescopes and detectors must be carried high above it by… … Universalium

Colliding-wind binary — A colliding wind binary is a binary star system in which the two members are massive stars that emit powerful, radiatively driven stellar winds. The location where these two winds collide produces a strong shock front that can cause radio, X ray… … Wikipedia
X-ray pulsar — X ray pulsars or accretion powered pulsars are a class of astronomical objects that are X ray sources displaying strict periodic variations in X ray intensity. The X ray periods range from as little as a fraction of a second to as much as several … Wikipedia
