Astrometric observations of x-ray binaries using very long baseline interferometry

Astrometric observations of x-ray binaries using very long baseline interferometry

I review the astrophysical insights arising from high-precision astrometric observations of X-ray binary systems, focussing primarily (but not exclusively) on recent results with very long baseline interferometry. Accurate, model-independent distances from geometric parallax measurements can help de...
