4U1820-30

Abstract

4U 1820-30 is a bright Neutron star low-mass X-ray binary with poorly understood geometry and Fe Ka; origin. While independent studies detected a broad Fe Ka feature in 4U 1820-30, there was substantial disagreement regarding its shape and origin. An 80 ks XRISM/Resolve spectrum will address the controversy by revealing the spectral details of the Fe Ka complex in 4U 1820-30 and distinguishing between inner accretion disk, accretion disk corona, and disk wind origin.
