Scientific paper

We examine the close binary systems, Vela X-1, Cen X-3, SMC X-1, LMC X-4, GX 301-2, 4U 0115+63, 4U 1538-52, Her X-1, and Cyg X-3, which contain an ordinary hot star and a neutron star, suggesting that very high energy (VHE) gamma-rays are produced near the neutron star. Modulation of the VHE gamma-ray flux is analyzed by taking into account the pair production interactions gamma gamma to ee on a photon field around the companion star. Probable phase regions for investigation of the VHE emission are pointed out.
