A Test of the Nature of the Fe K Line in the Neutron Star Low-mass X-ray Binary Serpens X-1

Relativistic X-ray disklines have been found in multiple neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries, in close analogy with black holes across the mass scale. These lines have tremendous diagnostic power and have been used to constrain stellar radii and magnetic fields, often finding values that are consis...
