Astronomers from Argentina and France have investigated the evolutionary history of an eccentric high-mass X-ray binary known as GX 301-2. Results of the study, published December 22 on the arXiv pre-print repository, deliver important insights into the origin of this object and could help scientists to better understand the evolution of X-ray binaries in general.
