Scientific paper

ASCA and BeppoSAX observations of a number of ultra-compact (orbital period less than 1hr) X-ray binaries have revealed two possible spectral differences compared to other LMXRB systems. These are (1) the presence of a discrete feature near 0.7 keV (attributed to Ne) and (2) their best-fit parameter values when fit with a disk-blackbody and Comptonized continuum. We wish to clarify and extend the emerging picture of a spectral signature for the ultra-compact systems usign XMM-Newton. The proposed observation will allow a clear confirmation of such a signature which will, in turn, allow the nature of a LMXRB to be determined from its spectral characteristics.
