Notes. NOX is the state without X-rays. Lbol (in units of 1038 erg s−1) is the EQPAIR model luminosity. EFE (E × FE; in units of KeV cm−2 s−1) is the unabsorbed flux at Earth (at 100 eV, 124 Å). Computed wind velocities at the compact star Vwind (km s−1) are given for two orbital angles Φ = 0 and 30 degrees (the orbit = 360 deg, see Fig. 3) and for three clumping filling factors fvol = 1.0 (no clumping), 0.3, and 0.1. Time (in degrees, the orbital period = 360 deg) is the crossing time of a wind particle from the WR surface to the compact star distance.
