Scientific paper

We present theoretical models for populations of Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries in two elliptical galaxies NGC3379 and NGC4278. The models are calculated with the recently updated StarTrack code (Belczynski et al. 2006) and targeted to modeling and understanding the origin of the shape characteristics of the X-ray luminosity functions (XLF) in these galaxies. For the first time we explore the population XLF down to low luminosities in the range of (5-10)E36 erg/s as probed by the most recent observational results (Kim et al. 2006).
