Fig. 8

Stellar wind density calculated following the focussed wind model of Gies & Bolton (1986a). The x- and z-axes are shown in units of orbital separation. The position of the black hole is marked with a black cross, the position of the center of mass with a green cross. Lines of sight toward the black hole at orbital phases 0 and 0.5 are indicated by dashed lines, the orbital plane by a dotted line. We note that there are no discotinuities in the wind.
