摘要
A model is developed here to reproduce the pulse shape of Her X-1. The 35-day cycle of pulse shape changes during the 35-day Her X-1 cycle "High - Low - Short High - Low" is caused by varying obscuration of the emission region by the accretion disk. The observed sequence of pulse shape changes imply a pencil beam from the near pole and a fan beam from the far pole. Using a newly developed code for modeling accretion column emission, including accurate treatment of gravitational light-bending effects, the observed pulse shape of Her X-1 is modeled here.
