Supersoft X-ray Sources. Basic Parameters
read the original abstract
The parameters of ten supersoft X-ray sources (RX J0439.8-6809, RX J0513.9-6951, RX J0527.8-6954, CAL 87, CAL 83, 1E 0035.4-7230, RX J0048.4-7332, 1E 0056.8-7154, RX J0019.8 +2156, RX J0925.7-4758) observed by ROSAT obtained using blanketing LTE model atmospheres are analyzed. The consistency of the resulting parameters with a model with stable/recurrent burning on the surface of the white dwarf is studied. The luminosity and sizes of seven of the sources are in good agreement with this model. The masses of the white dwarfs in these sources are estimated. A formula that can be used to estimate the masses of white dwarfs in classical supersoft sources based on their effective temperatures is presented.

eRASSU J043115.8-711730: The first pulsating symbiotic super-soft X-ray source in the Magellanic Bridge
J0431-71 is a new super-soft X-ray symbiotic binary in the Magellanic Bridge whose ~524-day optical pulsation appears to drive variable accretion onto a white dwarf.
