Scientific paper

Consideration is given to recent calculations of general relativistic effects in the beaming, spectrum, and pulse properties of accreting neutron stars. Some possible models for X-ray pulsars and QPOs are analyzed, which indicate that current observational and theoretical requirements can be explained with a value of the radius smaller than about two Schwarzschild radii. Concurrent information and calculations on several X-ray burster sources are compatible with this conclusion.
