Physics

Binary stars are two stars that orbit around a common center of mass. An X-ray binary is a special case where one of the stars is a collapsed object such as a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole. Matter is stripped from the normal star and falls onto the collapsed star, producing X-rays. (references)
