The advection-dominated accretion flow for the anticorrelation between the X-ray photon index and the X-ray luminosity in neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries

ABSTRACT Observationally, an anticorrelation between the X-ray photon index Γ (obtained by fitting the X-ray spectrum between 0.5 and 10 keV with a single power law) and the X-ray luminosity L0.5-10 keV, i.e. a softening of the X-ray spectrum with decreasing L0.5-10 keV, is found in neutron star low...
