摘要
The discovery of kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer has stimulated extensive studies of these sources. Recently, Osherovich & Titarchuk suggested a new model for kHz QPOs and the related correlations between kHz QPOs and low-frequency features in LMXBs. Here we use their results to study the mass-radius relation for the atoll source 4U 1728-34. We fmd that, if this model is correct, 4U 1728-34 is possibly a strange star rather than a neutron star.
