Implications of Z-dependence• In addition to providing insight into models of stellar evolution,
HMXB Z-dependence can also constrain:
• progenitor pathways of GW sources • contribution of HMXBs to the heating/reionization of IGM • contamination of HMXBs to low-LX AGN searches in dwarfs

Evidence of Z-dependence• Local galaxies exhibit
LX-SFR-Z correlation, but samples may be biased
• Redshift evolution of HMXB relation could be effect of Z-dependence or driven by other factors

Evidence favors Z-z connection
• But is the local LX-SFR-Z relation biased?
• Can we improve measurements of this relation to provide better constraints for theoretical models?

• We have measured the HMXB Z-dependence at z>0.
• Z-dependence at different redshifts is consistent and accounts for the observed z-evolution of LHMXB/SFR
