Binary Orbital Modulation

Binary Orbital Modulation is a periodic variation in the observed X-ray emission from a compact object in a binary system, arising from the orbital motion that modulates the line-of-sight to the X-ray source through Doppler shifts, eclipse effects, or changes in accretion geometry.
