Long-term Evolution of Sco X-1: Implications for the Current Spin Frequency and Ellipticity of the Neutron Star

Sco X-1 is the brightest observed extrasolar X-ray source, which is a neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) and is thought to have a strong potential for continuous gravitational waves (CW) detection due to its high accretion rate and relative proximity. Here, we compute the long-term evolu...
