Scientific paper

The results of calculations concerning the accretion of matter and the following thermonuclear flash on the surface of a hot neutron star are presented. The influence of the neutron star luminosity and of the initial chemical composition of the accreted matter on the properties of the flash are investigated. It is shown that under the same initial thermal conditions, the evolution of the flash depends mainly on the helium abundance in the accreted layer prior to the development of thermal instability.
