Abstract
We present DABS (Database of Accreting Binary Simulations), an open-access database of modelled Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs). DABS has been created using evolutionary tracks of neutron star and black hole LMXBs, spanning a large set of initial conditions for the accretor mass, donor mass, and orbital period. The LMXBs are evolved with the Convection and Rotation Boosted Magnetic Braking prescription. The most important asset of this online database is the tool PEAS (Progenitor Extractor for Accreting Systems). This tool can be used to predict the progenitors of any user-entered LMXB system and view their properties before the start of mass transfer. This prediction can facilitate preliminary searches for the progenitors of observed LMXBs, which can help in streamlining further detailed analyses. The PEAS tool can also be used to constrain population synthesis techniques that specialize in supernova kicks in binaries and common envelope outcomes.
