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
