Scientific paper

The explanation of the strong physical changes clearly taking place in the Z-track class of Low Mass X-ray Binaries has so far not been obtained, and this remains a significant astrophysical problem, without which we cannot claim to understand accretion in LMXB. We have for the first time applied the Birmingham emission model (2,3) to this problem to attempt to obtain a solution from the spectral evolution along the Z-track in the source GX 340+0 observed with Rossi-XTE. In this model, X-ray emission consists of blackbody from the neutron star, plus Comptonized emission from an extended ADC.
