The minimum orbital period in thermal time-scale mass transfer.

KING A.R., SCHENKER K., KOLB U. and DAVIES M.B.

Abstract (from CDS):

We show that the usual picture of supersoft X-ray binary evolution as driven by conservative thermal time-scale mass transfer cannot explain the short orbital periods of RX J0537.7-7034 (3.5h) and 1E0035.4-7230 (4.1h). Non-conservative evolution may produce such periods, but requires very significant mass loss, and is highly constrained.
