Table 1.
Parameters adopted for the three models presented in the paper.
| Model | Z | Z⊙ | SFR | α3 (IMF) | CE dev. | M2 limit | LMXBs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (M⊙ yr−1) | (M > 1 M⊙) | criteria | in LMXBs (M⊙) | draw | |||
| 1 | 0.01 | 0.014 | 2.5 | −2.3 | Standard | 3.0 | No |
| 2 | 0.01 | 0.014 | 3.5 | −2.3 | Standard | 3.5 | Yes |
| 3 | 0.01 | 0.014 | 3.5 | −2.3 | Alternative | 3.5 | Yes |
Notes. The columns are: metallicity Z, solar metallicity Z⊙, star formation rate, the index, α3, of the initial mass function in the high mass star regime, the adopted CE development criteria, and the upper limit of a donor mass in LMXBs. In the last column we mark the model in which we draw 30 LMXBs out of all the synthetic LMXBs in a model (see Sect. 7.1).
