Overview

Observational analysis revealed an orbital period of 4.258 hours in MAXI J1807+132, indicating it has an M-dwarf companion.

Key Points

  • The periodic variation in the light curve confirms an orbital period of 4.258 hours for MAXI J1807+132.
  • A binary inclination angle of 72 degrees and a mass ratio of 0.24 were determined through modeling.
  • The presence of an M-dwarf companion contributes significantly to the observed flux in the R band.
  • The study extends the absolute magnitude versus orbital period correlation to include neutron star systems.
