Scientific paper

We investigate the possibility of obscuring supersoft X-ray sources in the
winds of companion stars. We derive limits on the amount of circumstellar
material needed to fully obscure a 'canonical' supersoft X-ray source in the
Large Magellanic Cloud, as observed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory.
